What profile do you run on your 224s?

Replacing rears and have the standard 224 wheels - currently 45s on the front and 40s on the rear (what came with the car) however most tyre websites suggest 40 Front and 35 rear when putting in the reg, what are most running ? Feedback on people who have gone from one to the other?
 
Have you got an M or a non-M?

M sizes are 225/45r18 (f) and 255/40r18 (r)
Non-M sizes are 225/40r18 (f) and 255/35r18 (r)

I run slightly larger 265/40r18 on the rear of my M (brought about because the SuperSports were not originally available in the 255 and I've stuck with that size since) - which has the added benefit of making the speedo more accurate.
 
After I got my 224s refurbed I stuck with 225/45 fronts but went for 255/45 rears for a bit of extra comfort. :)

They also fill the arches a bit more and made the speedo more accurate!
