I know this probably has been queried....but I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the choices out there (just on Tire Rack alone!) needing some feedback on tires...what have you guys ran and loved?
I'm going with 195/60/15 (from 185/65/15) as I think the wider contact path will perform better and the 195's shouldn't rub (yes i know a bunch of you run 205's but I want to turn the thing in a parking lot without tire rub) so lay it on me...my pricing is all over the place...also doesn't seem to be a summer tire in this size so i'm guessing I'm limited to AS choices...still performance, sticky and somewhat comfortable top the list of attributes I'm after... |

I am running 205 65-15s and don't rub. Lots of sidewall bulge though, the 195s may be the better bet. I'm always hopeful to start seeing a proper 3 season tire come up. All seasons kinda suck on sports cars. Zach |
