new shoes

Was nervous about going for 225/50r17 but so far no rubbing at full lock. On my last car, I went through FOUR 235/40r18s in one year from tire blowouts and bulges caused by potholes. Skill issue maybe? Maybe just an issue with yokohama tires? Idk, but I didn’t love that car enough to dump money into it, so I traded it in for a mk7.5 to be my new money pit. Bc of my past tire issues (and having god awful roads), I went with the beefiest tires I could without modifying anything. I think it worked out well (I am aware that it makes it look like a wrx). If anyone else was heavily debating going for this fitment like I was, just do it.
