Default Tire sizes
What size tires do you guys prefer for 15'' wheels? My last set were 205/55/15 Yokohama AVS ES100.

Default Re: Tire sizes (93CivicSI)
so with the 195/55 it would provide better acceleration, and the 205/50 better grip?

It's not quite that simple, you have to take into account tire pressure and sidewall stiffness.
