on a daily driver?

stay w/ OEM size or are you bumping up to a 16" for the bling factor? then look up plus-sizing...

http://www.tirerack.com is also a good resource on reading up about tires, ratings...

do a lot of highway miles on your daily? then go w/ a high treadwear rating...etc.

1) Awesome tire size calculator
