When I first tried them in 96/97, I loved them
compared to the old 205's. For a less than perfectly
smooth driver, they reduced inside front lockup, would
tolerate later braking +turning, and drifted a little
more controllably.
The really fast guys are quicker on 205's, but I could
stay closer on 225's, plus they wore like iron -
although this may have been a compund change issue.
