MSSLGECKO Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Howdy All, I am getting some 15" wheels soon and need to start thinking about tires for them. . . The car is stock and I like to drive it year round in FWD, RWD, and 4WD. I don't want all seasons - I'd rather be good on dry pavement and o.k. on dirt/snow or vice-versa. I also want to minimize expense. Can anyone here point me in the right direction? Any good recommendations? Should I think about used tires or not? Thanks for reading my generic post.

Phizinza Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 On my 15x6" mags I got 215/60R15's. I picked this wide size as I wanted the bulging tire wall look (which turned out well ) But for snow/mud/gravle you might want something more like 185-195... As for brand, well I got a local Australian brand, so can't help you there.. Oh, and btw, the 215's make the Brat handle amazing on the pavment! And because they are just over 25" bit (23" is stock) the gearing isn't bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSSLGECKO Posted July 1, 2006 Author Share Posted July 1, 2006 215, eh? I definately want something a little bigger than stock diameter. What sort of tread would do well on the road for dd'ing but rally well too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSSLGECKO Posted August 20, 2006 Author Share Posted August 20, 2006 Instead of starting a new thread about the same thing . . . Can anyone point me in the right direction for purchasing cheap-o tires (like walmart brand) I'm looking for good experiences w/ cheap brands and models. Thanks for any input.
