i just ordered size 15 rota slipstreams for 300 bucks, was it a good price or not?

Sounds like a good price. I paid around $400ish.

You should probably get either 195/50/15 or 205/50/15 tires. A sidewall height of 50 is considered somewhat low profile, but it's not as low as 40 or 35 (really low profile). I think a 50 height sidewall is a good balance of performance and ride quality.

Good wheel selection!

50 is not a height, please read the forum faq before spouting bad information.

original poster, grab yourself some 195/50/15, 195/55/15, or 205/50/15 tires. this information could also be found in the faq.

205/50r15

205 - 205mm across (width of tire)
50 - 50% of the width (205 x 0.5 = 102.5mm) - sidewall dimension from rim to tread
r15 - 15 inches (rim diameter - 15in. x 25.4mm per inch = 381 mm (diameter of rim in mm)

hope this helps

Yeah, where did you order them from. I'm thinking about picking up some gunmetal rota gt3's for my vsm Integra.

But i want them in 16" and that will most likely put me at at least 400 bucks. But yea where did you order from?
