Default wow there is no tire selection in 205/50/15....

anyone running 205/60/15 on a 90 20v? might have to go that route unless someone can recomend something else.

Default 205/60/15 is the stock B4/CQ size...a little tall for a B3 IMO...

...a few folks have been know to get rubbing in the front (and back when there's folks in the back seat).

Is there anything else that's close to the rolling diameter of the stock tires? 195/55? 215/45?

Default Personally I have had great luck with both Falken and Kumhos on my cq and my UrS4. I'm running

Dayton Daytona ZRs right now and for the price I'm hard pressed to say you'd match them anywhere.

They're Bridgestone tires with the Uni-T construction and almost identical tread pattern.

Default yea when I searched I read that some people with 205/60/15...

were getting some rubbing but no real answer. I will check for 215/45/15 and see what there is otherwise I will just bite the bullet and get the kuhmos.
