Yeah, they're on. It rubs unfortunately, on the edge of the front bumper.
TD Pro Race 1 17 X 7 ET30, Falken Azenis RT-615 215/45/17.
I wanted to go with 215/40/17, but the sidewall would be shorter and I don't want to bend my wheels if I hit a port hole. Also the Azenis is not a comfortable tire so short sidewall will simply make ride quality worse. Another benefit with the taller tires, is a slightly decreased final drive ratio.
In any case the Azenis is much more comfortable than my Advan A-048, which I had as temporary street tires for about 3 months.
