Tires & Wheels

[ats at longcoeur.com (Patrick Bureau)]

On 15x7 there are really 2 choices, 195/50/15 or 205/50/15, the only
difference between the two are the following

205/50/15 has Better grip in the turns (sticks more to the road), but 1rst
gear seems like a turtle compared to the 195/50/15.

6 or 1/2 dozen, if you doing a daily driver, 195/50/15 of a good quality is
more fun to drive than the little advantage the 205/50/15 have.

I understand that it is generally accepted that 195/50/15 are the best all
around performers for our rocco's.....what tire would a 15x7 rim be able to
accomodate without rubbing or decreasing performance on the rocco.....what
constitutes lower profile tire?  are 205/55/15 lower in profile than a
195/50/15?  Please inform me as I am not up to snuff on my rim/tire
knowledge....I also want to get some sweet ass rubber and shine for my
rocc!!
Lemme know what is what!!!
