195/55/15 or 205/55/15
Cannot choose what to get for my car. They will be mounted on some slips on a 96 civic coupe. Let me know guys. I'm looking for 55 because i want a better ride. Also, any pics would be appreciated, since i cannot search for "55" or 205/55/15. Thanks guys, let me know. BTW, you guys think the 205/55's will rub? It is dropped on H&R sports.

Sorry to put it this way, but this is a stupid question and poll results won't tell you anything.
If your '96 Civic Coupe is a DX model, the proper 15" size is 195/50-15. If it's an LX or HX '96 Civic Coupe, the best 15" size is 195/55-15 but you can also use 205/50-15. 205/55-15 is MUCH TOO BIG.
If you want a better ride, then use your stock wheels (13" or 14"); the best way to improve ride comfort is to use smaller wheels, not to use the wrong tire size like you're talking about.
