[Shotimes] 235x45x17 tires

Uh, why??

215s are a better fit for a 6" rim, as well as giving better all-weather
performance with their narrower cross-section. For up to 80% cornering, they
will give up nothing in handling, and will handle rough roads better.

225 ANYTHING on a slicer is too wide. I' sure that I would like my 225/55/16
ES100s even more if they were on a 16x8" rim.

Ryan; I noticed that you were looking to get 215/60/16's. I'd recommend 
getting 225/50's or at least 225/55.
