My car has a JDM 96' Spec 4x114.3 conversion and I bought the wheels below for more of an OEM look for the car.

Anyways, the car currently has 225/55-15 on it with a ITR's. What is a good tire I can get considering I need it for snow, all season and good traction since the car has 350 whp.

Thanks

 

Anyone?

 

I found these and it shows they will a 6-8" rim. Since I need these in snow are these good tires?

Also, will 225/60/15 work with these wheels and suspension conversion?

 

Do you want to tell us what kind of car they are on (year, model, version, etc) or are we supposed to guess?

 

Good point lol geez 96 Hatch

 

Wow, you're asking about tire sizes that are much much MUCH too big for your car. For 15" wheels, the tire size you need is 195/50-15.

You can't get great traction in warm weather AND decent traction in snow in the same tire. If you want great traction in warm weather and decent traction in snow, get an extra set of wheels; then, you can get winter tires to use in the winter, and summer tires to use the other nine months of the year.

But assuming that's not an option, you'll need to get all-seasons, and they will just grip okay, not great, year round. The best all-seasons in 195/50-15 are the Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S ($99/tire after rebate with free shipping from Discount Tire Direct). If you don't want to spend that much, the Falken Ziex ZE-912 is $64/tire with free shipping from DTD.

Frankly, though, I don't see the point in modding a car to get great horsepower and then getting all-seasons which won't be able to put all that horsepower to the ground. If you can get an extra set of steelies or cheap wheels (or if you already have a second set of wheels), you can get some really sticky summer tires (like the Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 or Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec, both available in 195/50-15) to put that 350 hp to the ground, and then get some winter tires for the snowy season.

 

Thanks I just bought the Michelins.

 

it all depends on wheels size (width especially) and how low you are going...
