Default Which tires should I get for the wheels I just put on my Integra.

Are either of these tires good, yes, no, maybe so. What do you guys think I should go with between these 2 I have narrowed down on? Speed rating means nothing by the way cause I'm not a speeder where it would actually matter. The top attachement is the Falken ziex something something 205/55/15 and the other is Yokohama ES100 195/55/15

I'm comparing falkens and yokohama. I like the prices 72-82 at our local discount tire store on Aspan. The falken is a 205/50 and the yoko is 195/55. I'm debating whether I want to keep the stock size or go a little wider and shorter...

No, I won't show them to you. I'm afraid you'll make fun of me. LOL I'll get some pics up soon. They are replicas of the rota slipstream. But then rota's are replicas of spoon, so with knowing I couldn't spring for the spoons, I figured WTF, I'm getting new tires w/them that I can probably sell and they look like slipstreams to me and weigh less than my 17's.

Hey...even though those 195's are cool, you definetly dont want to waste your money on something with such a low sidewall width. I promise you'll be disappointed in a few months.

I figure I can't go wrong though since that is the factory size...right now the wheels have 185/65, are you suggesting I stay w/those? There for a civic.
