    oil temp /water temp help

    adding my voice to what @R20BTG said with respect to Oil Temp. it's bit higher in our region (Middle East) for coolant, the needle points the middle when the coolant temp is between 80-100 degree C.

    225/45 instead of 215/45 - Softer Ride?

    slight ride difference depends on the utilization (track vs road) apart from fatty vs skinny look. I switch in between for track days (I go with 225/45/17) with more camber (~-2.5) and for road with 215/45 with a less camber (~-2.0) what's your wheel's J? is it 7J or more?
