On my road wheels I have 225/35, same same overall rolling circumference as std wheels.
Agree with you, but the guy who asked the question has got 225/45/17 and I can guarantee they will be no good for his car. With your road tyres being a 35 profile,with all the fucking potholes it must be a case of trying to avoid them or chance damaging your rims? My suspension is pretty low and hard and with my 205/40/17 tyres I have to avoid them if I can.
