Exclamation Falken Ziex ZE-912

I know this subject has probably been beaten to death but I had a quick question. I'm going to go buy new tires today and wanted to know if you guys suggest running 235/45 or 245/40 on the Stock BBS Rim (on an 06 STI)

Also will any of these tire sizes give me rubbing issues when I lower the car on RCE V2 springs.

Help me out here tire gurus. Thank you.

Is the sidewall just as tall as the Falken. What about when the car is lowered. Thats what worries me the most I guess.

OK so Ill probably just slap the 245/40 on the stock BBS then. Might as well go wide....
