Tire options

I have a set of 99 si rims that i just had totally refinished. I am now looking to get tires for it but im not really sure what size to get and which ones. The ones i had assumed would be good are 205/55/15s and these are the ones i have looked at most.http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....omCompare1=yes

Also i am looking for a smooth ride good dry performance. Pretty much the best overall summer tires i can get. I do not want my speedometer thrown off too much and i eventually plan on lowering my car about 1.5 - 2 inches. Price is not an issue but i would like to stay under 400 total. Thanks.

Re: Tire options

You continually contridicted yourself in that post.
Price is not an issue, but you want to stay under $400 total, that's a low budget. You want a smooth ride, but your planning on lowering your car. If you lower it you will not have a smooth ride.

Google miata tire size calculator to figure the size that will throw your speedo off the least.
