Didn't even know that size was made.

Where did you get them? Price?

Re: what size tire do you go with 15s (Jedi_Sol)

Ok i got greater steering response when i used 195s. when i jumped to 205 a little quick steering response was taken away. IMO for NA daily driven car use 195. If you want the track tires use what you want slicks, 205 or this guy^^^245s

Either of those will be fine, the 205/50 I prefer.

Depends on the year of the car. On 96-00, proper size is 195/55r15. I'm going with yok avs es100 for my next tire in 195/55r15.

Re: what size tire do you go with 15s (kommon_sense)

I'm running 205/50 on my 98 EX coupe. I've got H&R springs and Tokico Blues and under hard cornering, they rub just a bit (it's a weird sort of noise, almost a creeking sound – at least I hope it's tire rub!). I really like the look, too. If I had a stiffer suspension, it's be perfect.
