205/55/R15s are about $25-$30 more per tire than a 205/60/R15 or 205/50/R15 because 205/55 is an off size.

i wouldnt be so pissy if i had my goddamn Aero Bumper prototype and i knew it fit!!!!

jaysgottaredtop · 03-27-2014, 07:15 PM

I checked, and it turns out $57 tires do not qualify as "expensive" by any stretch of the term

But if it's such a huge deal, and if 205/50s are really that much cheaper, then get 205/50s

205/50s looked stupid if youre not dropped to the ground. ive already stated that i have no interest in laying frame rail.

thanks for the link, for some odd reason i couldnt get that site to find anything 205/55. i found the 535s on citytireonline.com for $61 a piece.

gonna be ordering some tires next week!!!

now, i just need my S15 helical diff to show up and to get a steel braided power steering line and i will be in business!

***dorkidori_s13*** · 03-31-2014, 07:20 PM

went to go order my Federal SS535 tires in 205/55/R15s today, and theyre on national back order *head/desk*

jaysgottaredtop · 03-31-2014, 07:38 PM

Are you sure?

"3 Available" sounds like more than 0 available.

FRONT: 15×7.5 +15 - 195/60/15 | REAR: 15×8 +0 - 215/60/15

Here's another car on 60 series tires. I personally would go no bigger then 55s but its your decision. Specs are from his fs thread.

Specs----4x114.3 15x7 +15
Tires are 185/60 195/60

ghoti · 04-01-2014, 09:48 PM

195/60R15 with 4x4 height VS.

Vs. 205/50R15 no 4x4 height

Hi-Res

ghoti · 04-01-2014, 09:50 PM

Tho 195/60R15s don't look bad when there little to fender gap

***dorkidori_s13*** · 04-02-2014, 12:04 AM

wheels are FINALLY on the car!!! i still need to get the rear fenders rolled. i lightly tapped the lip in a bit with a sledgehammer to keep the sharp edge off the tire during compression. im also going to drop the car a bit more. but yeah, its SO nice to have new tires again!!! the tires on my chuki seven spokes had flat spots all over them from dumb old women who dont know how to signal when changing lanes on the freeway and cause me to slam on the brakes!!!

***dorkidori_s13*** · 04-02-2014, 12:20 PM

took a better day time pic. fenders should be rolled on monday/tuesday so ill be able to get the ride height and alignment adjusted properly next week! w00t. im happy regardless!

Reece · 04-02-2014, 06:50 PM

Looks good Dorki!

***dorkidori_s13*** · 04-02-2014, 08:53 PM

thanks man, theres still a bit of work left to do with getting the car to sit where i want it. cant do it til the fenders are rolled though

Zenki B · 04-03-2014, 09:16 AM

I'm wondering how you guys pull of the small wheels so easily. I always thought that a 240 had to be slammed with 18s to look good. I'm really digging the kinda stock look of the smaller wheels

Fupersudge · 04-03-2014, 11:46 PM

Lowered it as far as I could without having to start pulling the fenders.
