I had 195/50/15 a little less profile because my car was dumped really low

195/50/15, 195/55/15 or 205/50/15. However 205 will have more tire flex since the rims are only 6" wide.

if slammed i'd go 195/50/15, otherwise 195/55/15 is the correct size. General rule is you can take the stock size for your car and go +/- 2% overall diametre.

$490 for Hankook R-S2 Z212, i'm considering selling my 205/50/15 for $450. Either way you'll love these tires, they are amazing

Cheers
Work discount hooked me up, as i was getting quotes from 650-770 shipped.
I was running falken azenis (195/60/14) last year, so i am just hoping these will be around the same performance.
