If they're 7" wheels, then stick with the 225/45R17 size. If they're 7.5" wheels, then you can safely go to 235/45R17 - a much cheaper fitment as it's much more common here in Australia (common size for SV6 Commodores and XR6 Falcons to start with), and you'll actually correct the under-reading of the speedo too.

Got my car back from getting a Bilstein B8 / Eibach spring combo. She's HIGH but feels amazing on the road.

Took one last drive of my Bora and then listened to that exhaust note as the new owner drove it away.

I FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEENNNNNN hate cars at times!

My estimate depending on how hard it is to replace is around a grand at least $300 for the shaft i found. Almost fixed the slop in the shifter as well by doing this but ****.
