Well i picked it up tonight and what can i saw......
Pound for pound i would say it is one of, if not the best car i have ever owned. Only beating the BMW as that was 4 times expensive
Drives superbly and so so solid build quality.
VERY impressed, and as it has been remapped it goes VERY well too.....
Roll on a few trackdays me thinks

Yeah 225/45/17 is the way
very close to the same overall diameter as standard 205's so no issues with rubbing or speedo etc. - much larger range of choices and better prices too 
I use that size, Goodyear F1, works well
I drove my mates black VRS a while back now, seemed nippy mind! His has been remapped (not sure what to, i'd guess the same?)

The 18" Audi Rs 6 alloys are now in the shed heavily kerbed by the missis and it handles so much better on the 17`s

I've just bought a Red one yesterday
Really cool filter on that camera to make the car as shiny as that!
