does anyone have a picture of 205/55/15 tires on their car.i just want to compare them with 50 series.i think 50 have to much gap.what do yall think?

[~4N~]

Adrian has 55's on his car, I have 50's. How wide are the wheels you'd put them on?

how do you like those bfg tires

[edgartheace]

Why don't you run 205/65/15. They are close to the stock size ratio and give you the tire width you want.

ya they are close but thats a dumb idea. 205/60/15 was stock, id get 205/55/15, 50 series seem too small for me

i dont have a pic off hand but i have 205/55 15 in the front and 205/50 15 in the rear, and the rears just look a bit silly. Maybe if i had a nicer wider wheel but i think for a 15" rim a 55 is good. i could always lower the rear of my car more but it would be a negative "rake" affect.

I like um, although the ride seems a little harsh, but that is said in comparison with the all season tires that were on there when I bought the car, but the KDW's are great in the rain btw

205/55-15 is closest to stock on the stock wheels. Here are pics of mine.

They were, on summer package. But 205/55 matches up to the 195/60 tire size almost perfectly. better than 205/60. 205/60 has a lot of sidewall.

[SR20drftSX]

soo should i get 205 for this winter? or stick wit the 195's?..most liklely be using the same tires until next season(winter)

Skinny tires are better for the snow. I am canadian, so i guess that makes me an expert.
