Need Tire suggestions, Please!!
Hello all,
I have 16 rims on my 94 accord sedan and am asking for any suggestions on which brand I should get. Let me know if you have any positive or negative feedback on any tires. I am trying to keep close to the same size (205 55 16)
Thank you
Phill S.

Actually, 205 55 16 is the correct size. I have 16's from a 1999 Acura 2.3CL and the tire profile is 205/55/16. If you check out http://www.tire.com, they have tires for your wheels. I like the Falken Azenis Sport, which they have for $86 shipped.

that is correct size for a CL not an accord. i know they are built on the same platform yadda yadda yadda, but when your stock size is 195 60 15 then your proper plus 1 upgrade is 205 50 16. of course it'll fit, but if you want the tire that'll most closely match stock then 205 50 16 is what you want. besides a 205 50 16 is better than a 205 55 16 anyways, since it will have less sidewall flex. the only benefit to 205 55 16 is rim protection/softer ride and will fill in some wheel gap.
