Tyres 225/45/17 for New Clio 200 EDC

[Peter1981]

Hi everyone!
I've bought new Clio RS 200 EDC. Now I have winter tyres 215/45/17. I want to buy 225/45/17.
Have anybody used this size of tyres instead of standart width 205?
Thank you for answers

Hello, I'm buying a 2022 Clio V 140 and I would be interested to see how the that size works ..

I've got 225/45/18 and they work perfectly fine, fill the arch nicely with no real issues other than slight rub when on full lock and you can hear the odd rub when hitting a bump in the road!
I opted for PS4s due to the chunkier side wall!

As I said in my PM I run that size and gave no problems whatsoever.

Thanks for the reply.
Is your car lowered? (seems to be)

I run 225/45/17 winter tyres on my Megane. They're quite a bit bigger than a 215 so if you have spacers you may have to get slightly thinner ones to stop any rubbing

225/45/17

Vs 235/40/18, wheels are also different offset too

Yes it's on Cooksport springs, 10mm rear spacers and 20mm fronts.
