how do these tires ride on stock rim

Will 225/45YR17 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2 fit on a stock rim and do they handle, corner well?

i had those but 215/40-18 on a different car and i thought they handled awsome. little noisy but not bad. also had a little sidewall flex but i didn't run a lot of air in them.

yea but not that bad just a tiny bit more than stock. shorter sidewall and longer treadlife (harder compound) usually make more noise. it really wasn't noticable until the tread wore down some.

i have them on a stock wheel lowered with stechs, they are great. rides softer, get traction and launches, and corners wonderfully. just a little rubbing with the stechs
