195/65 pretty much matches the diameter of the stock tire and not a clearance issue with stock wheels. 205/50's better for spirited driving, handling and acceleration. Speedo and odo will read about 8% fast, and gas mileage obviously worse.
These cars are so light that non track tire wear is not an issue, so name your poison. |
