I do have 245/40/19s on them, but they feel no different from the 18" OEM 050a's. I was rather surprised that it rode the same, even with the lower profile. (The 19s are Falken FK452s with the reinforced sidewall.)
That said, 225/45 will have the same sidewall as the 245/40 so there won't be much of a difference going that route. Not to mention, 225 is a little too narrow for an 8.5" wide wheel. The 50 series is going to be somewhat taller and will affect your speedo.

ovrkast, 245/45 won't be too bad. Your speedo is still going to be off by a bit. Although, If i'm not mistaken, there's someone else on here with those tires on his X. I can't put my finger on the name right now. From the 17s to 19s you will definitely feel a difference but i would say it's a good difference. Possibly slightly rougher ride but you gain in handling. In my case, from the sport 18s to these Nismo's there wasn't any difference in ride quality - possibly because the overall package is lighter so it reacts faster to road undulations.
GeeWizzard, yep i removed the stickers. They're only sticky vinyl that comes off with your nails. I didn't even have to clean up with Goo-B-Gone.
I did the same on the Altima Nismo 18s on my old Max.
G35Ian, thanks!
