i just got my 225-45-17 kumho asx installed on my 17x7 rims. the ride quality is a MILLION times better then the horrible 205-40s i had before. the pic dosnt really do them justice, but the car has a bad ass look to it now with these tires. you can also tell that they are a lot wider when looking at the front of the car, and should provide much better traction then the tires i had before.. they even made the car sit about 3/4th of an inch higher (just eyeballing it) and speed bumps are no longer a problem like they used to be. im very happy with them so far
here is a before and after: old 205-40-17s  new 225-45-17s
