Thread: 205's vs 195's???

Tire Products - Discount Tire Direct

Direct tire discount is where I buy my tires. I'll never order from anybody else as long as they are in business. Those guys know how to take care of their customers. I bought a set of 205/40/17's Falken 452's (best tires I've purchased to date) for like $372 to the door. Free shipping and No sales tax. Full of win.

Looking for some tires. - SR20 Forum

^Reviews on them from the OG forum.

Try to convince yourself it's not the size of the ship. ROFL!

+1... compound and construction are important, but unless you're trying to meet Spec rules for something, then (as Pontiac said in the 90's) wider is better. YMMV.

skinnier tires grip better in adverse conditions

Ain't that the truth. My dads former 1993 geo metro was a rail in the light snow.

My Potenza RE-11 205's are a little wider than your average 205..

obviously the "205" is a measurement of 205 mm side, but some manufacturers vary a little from that and a 195 would suffice with as much grip as this tire has....

there are so many better options than Tire Rack out there anymore..

yeah my all seasons are going to be 185 or 195's..

Where?!?!? The 195 options on tire rack are weak, imho.
