TriGem: I hear what you're saying but,

I've seen more than a few posters on the Boxster racing board saying that it can be done and that it does help limit your understeer. One of the TireRack guys I ususally talk to also said that it will work but your installer may not be happy with you.

I'm interested to find out from someone that's done it if there is that much to be gained from that size vs. a 225/45/17 in front.

BTW, the OD on the 245/45/17 is roughly 25.3", just about the same as the PS2's mounted on the 18" that came with the car. The rears are about an inch taller, unlike the 986 cars where the OD on F&R tires were almost the same.
