I have bronze Rota Circuit 8's on the way (for $380, shipped, hehe) I dont know if I should get 215/50s 205/50s or what.

Heres a pict of the rims in 205/50, anyone got a pict of 215s?

Thanks

i personally like the 195/50 =P

edit: how wide are your rims...

205/50/15 is perfect. 215's might rub, and they'll be heavier.

Stock is 195 i believe. your rims are probably wider. but get a 205, 215 is a lil wider, but not a lot. 205 grips better, it does, steering is a lil heavier. 215 steering is even more heavier. just remember, wider the tires, the less grip in rain. this is generally true, but a good tread for rain will compensate for a 205 width. i got toyo proxes 4, for 340 installed and balanced.

P.S. That is a really good looking car, love those fogs, i really do

Looks like the Rotas are 15x6.5

Heres my current ones. 17"s, blah.

The black one above isn't mine, just to be clear.

edit: Course I have $150 in the current 17"s hehe

Stock size is 195/55/15. The next step up from that would be a 205/50/15, then 215/45/15. That is only if your aim is to keep a semi-stock rolling diameter.

The 205/50-15 Azenis (as pictured there) are 219mm wide by my measurement. Going with a wider tire would not be ideal with a 6.5" wide wheel.

BTW, if you want Azenis, you have no choice but to get 205/50-15 - considering that's the only 15" size that Falken makes.

Those are nice, but I'm not stuck on them. Whatever we have at work I can get for the best price I'll pick.

get azenis, personally I think it's a bad *** tire for a street car. Can corner like crazy, and grip is pretty good.

Mine dont look skinny at all, but if your gonna slam it id get 195's. 205 are too fat IMO .The only 205 i would get are the falkens. but thats just me.

The overall diameter of 195/55/15's is .2-.5" greater than a 205/50/15. This will affect acceleration and cruise rpm to a small degree.

p.s. I'm pretty ****
