I was offered a set of brand new tires from falken for pertty much next to nothing
they wanted a review on the new 912 so I have taken them in
(relatives in other companys FTMFW)
I ended up going with the 235/45/17 which is 1/2" larger in OD than the spec 25" of the stock 205/55/16 tires
they are mounted on et19 17x8 rims
the top section of the inner fender liner had to be removed due to rubbing issues
no rolling or mods to the fenders were required
my spedo is a bit off 62mph(spedo) =65mph(real world)
gearing has changed a bit as well, 65mph == seady 2450rpm with the slushbox
