Default What size tires?

What size of tires should I get for a 92 civic eg, with 15 inch rims and a slight drop. Car is a daily driver, and needs all season tires.

Thanks for any info

haha, yeah my thoughts exactly

have fun with that if you put that on your car, won't hold the load and pretty unsafe if you ask me

15" on eg = 195/50/R15's

that should be the appropriate size i'd recommend

Anyone know if the 205/50/15 will fit onto SI wheels? They aren't too wide?

I liked my Bridgestone Potenza RE950's. They were nice tires. Quiet, smooth, good dry grip, good wet grip, decent snow handling. I feel it was a good all around tire. If I were to go back to all season tire I would probably go back to those.
