I often thought it would give more handling but too, wondered how it would affect steering...? When I put 255's on the front of a FWD drive car in Forza motorsport 4 - it upset the handling dramatically so for this reason I was not in a hurry to modify the width in real life, in case in messed up the steering. You see, my theory is, Honda spent millions in the R&D of the Type R, be it EK, EP or FN...if they thought 215's were better, why would they put 205's on if 215's were better? (forgive my ignorance if the answer is obvious but I am hoping this might be a good question!?) :lol:
