I have so much more traction and the handling is transformed. I was very unhappy with the amount of understeer with the factory sizes. Mounting 245/40-20 on the stock front wheels has resulted in much better turn in, front end grip and neutral handling. I love it.
I've got 245s on the std front wheels and 275s on the std rears.

Grip is better at the front but the over-aggressive traction control still spoils fast pullaways in electric mode. You can still easily spin the fronts but it is better.

No fouling anywhere and they look nice on the rims. Had them on for about 8000 miles.

But of extra protection from the kerbs too.
