    What are the original size of the ES tires?

    Better to stick to original overall diameter (rims + tires)

    better stick with 215/40r17... so that you will be able to rotate the tires evenly. and if you put 215/45 at front and 215/40 at the back, hindi parang nakatingala ng konti? mahahalata na mas makapal ng konti ang sidewall ng harap na gulong.

    but since your pirellis are just two months old, maybe you can buy 1 pirelli only. same with your previous ones.

    ang tanong bakit hindi ka na lang bumili ng isang 40 series of the same brand?

    kung ang tanong ay kung pwede, pwede kaso magkakarubbing issue ka niyan. mas ok kung kabit mo sa likod yung 45 series and 40 sa harap.

    lowered ba? baka kasi sumabit ka sa fender liner if ever.

    medyo weird kung left higher than right or vise versa.

    You should get the same tire size for all the wheels, front and back.

    In your case you should have bought another 40 series na replacement not the 45, tutal isa lang naman yung may problema. Maybe the reason why you were sold the 45 is because yung shop na binilihan mo walang stock ng 40.

    Kung ako sayo, ipa-trade mo yung nabili mong 45 back to a 40.
