Is that 10 revolution per mile difference (just over 1%) going to make a difference in the speedometer or odometer reading?
It seems that the 225/45-17 size gives a closer match to the stock Turanza's 837 revolutions/mile... but you don't recommend that size because of fitment issues?

That's weird.I have the G009's on mine and I don't notice the extra 10 revolutions.
The stock 205's are 25.02" in overall dia. the 215's are 24.74" and the 225's are 25.1" so maybe that little bit .28" makes that much of a difference.
