Guy didn't you poly bush all your suspension? That will have made a big difference to the way the car handles, everything will be tighter than standard so tramlining on the road might be a trade off for handling on the track.
If you want it all soft and comfotable you'd be best off with with the stock 17" and standard suspension arms
(When I bought mine it was shod with 225x40x18 and the ride was hard and it tramlined. I changed to 225x45x18 which was an improvement but I suffered a lot of sidewall damage [here in rural France if you have to share the road you often have to run onto the grass verge and if the tarmac surface is damaged at all when you rejoin the damage rips out the inner tyre wall!].)
Chris, the profile is a persentage of the width of the tyre, so 40 or 45 of 225 isn't much different but 45 of 245 over 45 of 225 would be. If that makes any sence.
