Do the latter & I'd recommend Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta's,there more grippy in the wet on the back end,something you'll really appreciate once you get the car mapped.
Whilst the traction control light might go off in unison with your big fuck off sound system,it does get quite tedious,+going sideways on the M25 gets dangerous at times 
The Vreds are more expensive than the Falkens,but it's money well spent.

Micheldever tyres will price match Camskill,and Micheldever are awesome in terms of tyre fitting/balancing and alignment

Noted, thanks a tonne Ian I think I'll look into 225s front and 265 rear as 255 will be too big a stretch for a DD.
When telling the insurance company of these changes do I need to mention stretched tyres? Sam
