Shaking when I drive
Hello,
Car Specs: Acura Integra 2000 (20,053 miles...I never drive it)
Yesterday, I inflated my driver's side tire because it was low on air. Everything was fine.
Today I drove to school....fine.
When I was driving home, I noticed some bumpyness. I thought it was the road but I soon realized it was my ride.
I jacked it up and checked the tires but I don's seen anything wrong.
What the heck could be causing the bumpyness?
Worried

Alright, here's the problem
My driver's side rear tire is almost dead. I have to get a new one.
So, I'm going to get 4 new tires since they are about 7 years old already and I want to avoid any issue from dry rot etc.
I use to sell wheel & tires back in the 90's. But I don't know if my tire size will rub:
Right now the tire size is 195/55/15
I want to go up to 205/55/15. (does anyone know if this will rub)?
No, my car is not dropped.
Thanks guys

a compatible tire size to the original would be 205 50 15. as far as the bumpyness it could be a tire out of round, broken belt in the tire, etc. but since you are replacing them i guess that part is void lol.

Thanks for the input guys....
The 205 50 15 are on order. But I don't want my car to be lower to the ground.
Will going from 195/50/15 to 205/50/15 make my car lower?

Wall height is the first number (tire width) x the second number(as a percentage)
