225 or 245 up front

I just got a set of 16" s2000 rims with khumo tires. My question is which would be best to run on the front of my car, the 225's or the 245's? Please let me know

if your class allows you to run 245s, then stick 'em up front.

If not, then put 225s on both and run the wider rims up front.. you'll have a bit better steering response and hopefully less understeer.

Same as Matt said. The S2000 is a perfect setup backwards for us. 245/45 front, 225/50 rear. Ah, I miss those special old OEM S-02's too, the 9" wide 225 ones!
