Default Upsizing from stock IS250AWD tires...

While I'm not in the market for a new set of wheels yet, I would like to upgrade my current 225/45R17 tires (on the 17X8 rim) to something wider or something that would improve handling. Any recommendations on choosing 235/45R17 vs 235/40R17 vs even 245/40R17 would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance fellas!

Bump! I'm interested in the same thing. The sizes you list look good to me. Have you put new shoes on her yet?
