I have 205/55/15 tires and they look ok. It will be better once I lower the car. I wanted to keep my 15" rims but didn't want to get too far away from the stock tire diameter

I'd also suggest going with 205/55/15 series tires. I would like to put performance tires on my 15" rims too, 205 is a good choice because it's a lot wider than stock, which was 185 before on my car [lx]

nymbus - stock specs are 185/65/15. don't stray too far from the stock specs otherwise you'll be throwing everything off. cb's still running his firestones... 60 if you must, 55 not worth it...plus then your wheel gap will look even bigger...

Yo man I'd go with 195/55/15....acutally that is what I went with...Michelin Pilot XGT or something like that...not too bad....and the new rubber saved my life a couple of times already!! But all joking aside...it was a solid investment.
