In the market for tires...if i buy new I am thinkin 205's ......what are your opinions...they are valued dearly

 

first of all, what rims do you have. that would make all the difference whether it'll handle 205 tires.

 

15X6.5 i was told they would handle 205's fine

 

15x6.5 will definitely be fine. I would go 205/50 or 205/55. good luck.

 

195 in the back

205 in the front

 

wtf? I guess that's ok. I would recommend the same tiresize on all four tires though.

195 in rear and 205 up front would be extremely wack for autocrossing on .

 

its all about preference and what type of rims....for me....i like 195/50/15 because they are cheap.....cheap bastard right here....lol

 

all about that 195/50

 

I hear that

195/50 is the best for me lol.

 

yea, personally for me, I'd get 195-50...for aftermarket and OEM 15s...people usually get 205s on their aftermarket 15s, but I dont really like how they look...it makes the tire/wheel look awkard on the car...195 looks more fit. plus, i dont think it makes the biggest difference...thats just me tho..ha.

 

That is true, but I don't auto cross. Didn't even think about that. This setup lowers the front about 0.2" and you get more traction for the front. Helps a little with torque steer.

 

195/50 my civic burns them like nothing............... but hey thats me.
205

 

i'm all about that 205/50

 

195 tuck that ****..

 

Same here!

 

For everyday driving 195 will be fine.

But for autocross or track 205 is the way to go.

 

I've been using 195/50/15s for some time they are great for the street but for autoX you may want a little more meat on there. Remember there are many different tire companies out there and their measurements vary company to company. One copanies 195 tire may be the size of anothers 205 or very close to it. I would look into bridgestone pontenza so3s in 195/50/15 they run fairly wide and i think you would be happy with them.

 

i vote 205's

 

thats why i run 195's

 

205 50

 

I like mine so far.
