What tires with Tein-S springs

Anyone who is running Tein-s springs on their WRX, what width tires are you guys running? I want to go as wide as possible, hopefully 245.

I have Tein S-Tech's on my 02 WRX and i'm running 225/45/17. The rim size is only 17x7.5. I'm sure if you go slightly bigger rim you might be able to up the tire size some more.

It's not a matter of wheels, I want the biggest tires without rubing. Thanks for the reply.

Those springs dropped the front end almost 2 inches. You might want to consider the rim size for rubbing.

I have 18x7.5 and haven't had any problems and I have the ones for 04 which is lower then the 02-03. the ones for the 04 lower the car about 2'1/2 in front and about 1'1/2 in the rear. Perfect drop if you ask me. No fender gap
