i realize that but i could have sworn other people were using this tire, maybe it was on hatchbacks

 

Legally he can't bro :[

 

Well, Advance Auto Parts won't sell me colder spark plugs ... I gets mad too

 

what r other tire places that sell tires cheap? websites? all the sites i see want to rip me off

 

what do you mean rip you off?

 

You have Sam's Club or Cosco membership?

 

go to discount tire/americas tire http://www.tires.com

You are in CA, they have to have a location near you. Thats where I have gotten all my tires from.

 

That's odd, I've ordered 195/50/15 711s from Tire Rack before and I've got the Si wheels. Hell I know people with 205 (from Tire Rack) on those same wheels.

 

yes got costco membership, and rip off meaning tirerack has 1 tire for 50 dollars, and i see same tire over here for like 70-80 dollars on other sites, just looking for a temporary decent tire to get maybe a couple thousand miles out that is also cheap in price and dont suck too bad in performance

 

just look for a local, smaller shop. they'll put just about any size tire on your rims. check your areas auto trader / parts trader. those shops at the back section selling tires should be able to help you out.

When I ordered my tires from the they didnt ask me what wheels I had....

 

your *** needs 205/50R15 H86 kumho escta 711's, thats the exact same thing i have. dont do 195, do 205.

 

weird.. i had a gs-r sedan and no one gave me stress when i got my 195/50-15 Kumho 712s from tirerack.

 

i thought 195-50-15 came stock on si rims the michelen gtx balch whatever well thats what was on my si's when i bought them from my friend...when he bought his 00 si straight from the dealer

also, im pretty sure the law or whatever is that they can sell them to you but they cannot mount the tires on your rims and mount the rims on your car, like at discount tire here they cant put the little whitewall tires on my borthers 13's for his lowrider ranger but they can put the tires on the rims but we have to bring the rims up there, he has hydros and all that ****

 

Safety like the man said is the only thing that would make sense that and they dont give a hoot about you or the money

 

hey slowdx, they were 195/55/15s, and those things were bald as hell!!! Trust me, I know. Anyway, I did some burnouts on them with my ZC sedan before the car went to a new home. The wheels found a new home on my sister-in-law's 02 EX coupe in St. Louis. She bought them for the same price you sold them to me for . She had to put her good stock tires on them, of course.

Also, the 94-up GSRs used 195/55/15s (at least our sedan did). I hate the way Honda uses oddball tire sizes that you have to pay out the a$$ for.

For example, our Odyssey uses 215/65/16s. Judging by the price and availability of that size, I think it's the only vehicle on the road that uses that size tire...

Stock tires came in 195/55/15

 

i ordered 195/50/15 for my integra LS wheels off tirerack...didn't have a problem

and YES you can run 195/50/15 because my friend ran yoko AVSES100 on his integra LS that came stock with 195/55/15 michelin XGTV4's

 

go to the web site, type in the size, order them. Whats the problem?

 

I just got my kumhos yesterday from tire rack. just go online and order them. search the size get the 205, wider tire.

ps-im using gsr hammers with a 205.50 712

 

can't you fit a 205 on that
