I'm going to change from the OEM 215/45/18 to the 225/45/18. I think the 40 series will be too low and make the built in speedo error worse.

Subaru gave the '04 STi 225/45 on 7.5" rim compared to the WRX on 7" rim 215/45.

Probably splitting hairs!

Side note, those STi from a few years back that were rally only came with 18x7.5 and were fitted with 235/40s.
