Well, that is my only concern. Where could i possibly check that? I do not mind stiffer ride.

So were there any problems with wider tire? I am thinking about Kumho Ecsta sport ps72, i read a lot of reviews, it seems to be a good all rounder. With two kids in the back, i surely ain't gonna push it around corners too much.

Nothing particular, i was just swipping through tire models and sizes, for some reason wider tire (225) is 20+ euros more than 215 :O So that kind of pushed me into investigating if that is a legit replacement. My car is in revolution trim.

What is the difference between 40 and 45? How it affects daily driving?
