Ok right now i have 205/55/15s and they rub when i go over bumps, or people are in the back seat. Its really bad when someones in the backseat actually...

I was thinkin about getting some 195/50/15s but i dont wanna have to replace my tires like every month haha... any suggestions?

Here is a pic of my car how it sits right now

 

205/50/15

55 series is too tall. Why would you have to replace tires every month with a 195/50/15?

 

I dunno, i figured the smaller the tread/tire, the faster they will wear out. haha

I dunno.. So you say 205/50s will do me good?

 

205/50/15 is perfect.

 

How much shorter are the 205/50 series from the 205/55s? like an inch?

 

205/50/15.

What makes you think 195/50's will wear quicker than a 205/50? I have both tire sizes (Kumho 712's), each set mounted on 15x6.5 wheels and the only difference ive seen is ride comfort and response. The 205's wear about the same as the 195's as far as ive seen.

The 205/50's are a bit meatier than the 195's which attribute to the better ride but the 195's are crisper in response. I guess pick the size that suits your needs, steering response or ride comfort.

 

yup 195/50 thats what mostly everyone runs on 15's

 

195/50 or 205/50 is ideal for 15's
