Autox for Cincy Sunday event?



So Shawn,
What do you think about running 225/50/14's??

I am trying to decide whether to run this size or the more conventional=20
195/55/14 on my et25 14X7 Revolutions.
I will probably pick up a set of Kuhmo V700 since I am still kind of a=
 Newbie.

I "think" it will fit but just wondering if the extra width/weight would=20
actually slow me down on the autoX course.
I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be beneficial on a roadcourse but figured on=20
the autoX, wider is better right? :)

Whatcha think??

Randy
