NFS - my Ashtray (150bhp 235lbs/ft) had exactly the same size tyres as my 335d (225/45 17" all round)... now I think if anything my car could do with fatter back rubber (not actually felt the need for it but I'm probably being a victim of marketing) but I always thought the Astra was overtyred. Of course they looked cool...
But with the 318d M Sport - isn't 255 rubber going to cause more road drag, more aerodynamic drag, going to use a lot more resources to produce and for the owner wanting to watch running costs, be sodding expensive to replace?! The car had 6k miles on it and TBH, the rear tyres were looking pretty worn. Poor car has cleary been utterly thrashed!
