Anyone running 225' tires?

[NickBW]

noise doesnt bother me much but are fat tires(on light cars) really that detrimental to traction in wet serfaces? I meen 225's on a 2300lb vehicle arent THAT big so that they have ahard time punching threw the rain are they? compared to 195 or 205 that is.. Ah well, I would keep keeping my current rims/tires for this winter driving anyway so that doesnt matter all that much for me either...
I'm still confused about how deeper tires would have such a negative effect on my cars braking/corner exiting performance. I can see the added unsprung/rotational weight would have a negative effect but I would figure the added contact to the road would cancel these out...

what do you meen? These cars werent ment to be fast but some crazy people do it anyway(20b swapped ae86 video comes to mind). Drifting would be another good example.
Sucessfully turning a vehicle into something that it wasnt able to be isnt a bad thing. I just want a car that will help me go around a few cones a little quicker then my freinds SM 89 civic Si. So I'm just looking ways to do it. A hothatch compition.
