Best Tires on Stock Rims?? HELP!!
I need new tires already at 23,000 miles!! Firestones suck a$$. Well, I am looking for tires that give good handling, great ride comfort, and very low minimal noise. I need help because I dont know $hit about tires. Thanks for the help and I am not looking for low profile tires.

Well, when I searched someone had said that we should change from 185/68/15 to 205/60/15. But I was wondering what the difference of the tire size is and are Yokohamas T4 any good?
First number is the width ex. 185mm wide and the second number is the percentage of the width that makes up the sidewall height ex. 60%of 185mm = 111mm this means the sidewall is 111mm thick and the last number of course is the size of the wheel...
I have a 02 LX and i just recently got new tires. I went from the stock 185/70/14 to 205/60/14. It was the only size i could have i went for a better tire without throwing the speedo off (according to the tire place) I love my new tires, much much more grip than those g@y firestones and these are about 2 inches wider. I can take turns a lot faster w/out the tires making noise, the ride is much smoother, quieter, and overall it handles a bit better. My new tires are Dunlop D60 A2...Traction Rating is A and Temperature rating is A, threadwear is 320 i think. But yeah, I am saving for 17" Rota Attacks and new rubber.
