photo of 15's

Please help me make up my mind!!!! I want to see pictures of 15 in wheels with 205/55 or 205/60 on it. (I know there's some pictures of it in the official wheels thread but I want to see more)

I have 205-50-15's on my 03 ex. I think it looks good, however, if I had it to do all over again I would do 55's, whe speedo is about 4 moh off. 60's I think would be too big and look like balloons in opinion

I put a set of 205-60-15 Kumho ECSTA HP4 716 on my g/f's 03 EX coupe. I'll have to snap a pic of them.

I also have a spare non-OEM 15" alloy I picked up on eBay for a spare, and it has the same Kumho tire as stated above.

As for the 205-60-15 ballooning out, I consider that extra rim edge protection, since my g/f tends to curb once in a while.

195 60 R15

They are 195 60 R15 Falken Ziex 512 on C8 wheels.
I should have choose 205 55 for better look and a
larger rubber patch, but the price was right.

here is a pic:

205/60's price is good...but it looks certainly funny though.....

205/55's price is crazy....but i believe they'll look good...lol

195/60.....well...probably gonna get this one anyway.....or 205/60? pricewise, they're the same =)

anyway.....now i feel happy that i decided to buy that 15" 04 Alloy...they looked the best in 15.....lol...im NOT saying that ur 15 looks ugly though...... ^_^

true, 205/60 can handle quite well and the ride is nice and firm. My stock steelies/hubs have 205/60/15 on em which i use for twisty runs and my soon to be Racing Hart CP-035Rs are going to have 205/50/15s on em.
