| the fronts you cannot go any bigger with stock suspension. The rears you can fit 65s on. Thats what i run. |
So basically 205/60/15 in the front and 205/65/15 in the back?

You run this on stock rims? The reason why I'm asking is because I plan to have the tires a little bit bigger in the back whenever I decide to dorifto.
(which comes every once in a while; not a daily habit.) I just wanna get some ideas before I get new tires.

Positives:
wider contact patch - therefore -better rear end traction
looks better if u like a wider than stock tire
also looks good from certain angles
shorter sidewall, but more sidewall flex could be a possibility(although i get less flex on my 215's than my tall azz 195 60's)- it depends on sidewall of specific tire
Negatives:
speedometer shows a little faster
looks ugly to me from side view b/c doesnt fill up fender gap ontop and on sides...(see first pic)- and they balloon
less sidewall cushion (not a big deal)
may get some understeer
here are my pics

For example: a 195/60/15 ES100 has a tread width of 6.8" and a measuring rim width of 6" which is 88% of 6.8".
Nissan new what they were doing when they equiped the OEM wheels with that tire size. Just put some sticky rubber on there and you'll be golden.
