Since I made my mind up to keep my stock OZ rims I was looking different tires and came across some Michelin Pilot XCT V4. They are 205-55/15. What do you think of the tires?

 

sorry i dont know much about tires but I am interested in knowing too... i will prob be keeping my stock 15's for awhile

 

If you are keeping the stock rims why change the tires?

 

b/c its been established that the stock tires royally blow

 

I think 205 is too wide for the stock wheels. I could be wrong, but that's quite a difference in widths isn't it?

 

I couldn't have said it any better

 

this may help a little

 

Any reason why the stock tires suck so much? I was always under the impression that yoko's were good tires....

 

It is a little bit wider than the stock 195-60/15, but over all it is still about the same height so it really won't change my speedometer.

 

mine didnt come with yokos... are Kumho Ecsta HP4 716's good tires?

 

Mine came with Goodyears, did anyone else come that way?

 

I just checked www.discounttiredirect.com and the 205-55/15 is called a plus zero as an optional size.

 

Yeah...I wasn't talking about profile height. the first number is the width. Going from a wheel meant for 195 width tires to 205 maaay be too wide. I don't remember the width of the stock wheels though. Just giving a word of caution.

 

It's worth a shot, you only can learn from mistakes.

 

i got goodyears with mine too
