Oh, there's no doubt the 245's will fit on the 8.0's but you've no doubt read that some have been disappointed with the loss of turn-in feel and a sensation of tyre squirm when pressing hard.
As you know, I've fitted 235's to 8.5's and they fit great.

Never mind, keep looking and you'll find something to suit you.
Have you softened up 'er indoors yet?

Mine is so at home but it is in the nissansilvia.com page.
Do not go there too often. I should be the one that snaps the one perfect fit for me
.
Just drive to Syd TT... to see their range in stock - some are very very nice.

Good idea to keep the stockers. Semi-slicks are your next job.
