Tire recommendations?

[xj0hnx]

You'll notice. The wheel will feel much attached to the road.

In the words of Pontiac... wider is better

 

[tdg]

Are there any cons to getting the wider ones?

 

[wanderinman]

Not 205's... if you go much wider you'll have rubbing issues and the steering will tighten up... but you wont notice anything but good between 195's and 205's

EDIT: I think the tires will be a dollar or two more, if that could be called a con?

EDIT #2: Ok, so nevermind that either, according to tirerack.com
195/55R15 ASX = $67
205/50R15 ASX = $65

sooooo... nope... no cons

 

[tdg]

Haha awesome, I'll definetely be getting those ASX's then at that price.
I guess right now I have 205's after all but they are shitty tires. Oh I can't wait until I get these. Thanks for all the help!

One final post from me...
I picked up my tires at Discount Tire at their store. I brought them the TireRack.com price and they knocked their price down to it. Plus since I bought them at a store I didn't have to pay shipping in the tires. I would definitely recommend finding a store that will price match and carries those tires, you'll save a little more money that way.

if u want a cheap tire thats still pretty good, falken ziex's are pretty decent i mean i cant compain about them in any way, other than they dont make them in 55 series in 14's. they handle fine in both wet and dry and i think they were rated num1 by hondatuning in oneo f the recent issues. i was running 195-55-14 bridgestone potenzas, now those were great tires and i loved them, up untill the point were my step dad wanted them back =(. then i went to the ziex its a difference but u cant complain for the price at like 45 a tire, for 14's

Wow thanks for that...I didn't even think of doing that. I wonder who else will match prices...I'll soon have to go look around the tire shops around here. That's a great idea.

I know lol is overused, but I definitely got a chuckle out of that one.

And no problem, glad my hours spent picking tires and whatnot has gone to serve the greater good!
