Go 215/255 for a mild understeer you can gas out of with a similar width ratio to stock. 225/255 would be a bit more neutral, about the same as the 215/245 you ordered. 225/255 would be more tire up front than stock, 215/245 is less tire in rear than stock.

 

How is the last one less tire in rear than stock when the stock rear tire size is 245?

 

^The oem 245s are pretty darn wide for 245s. When I replaced my oem bridgestones with a different tire it looked much more narrow.

my htrzII's will be here today I think! should be on before the weekend.

 

I see....what's the best place to get them mounted? I was thinking about just going to the pep boys near me but I'm sure they'll overcharge me. Anyone know how much it should run me?

 

Woohoo! They just came in, looking nice! UPS guy talked to me a little bit about tirerack and how he delivers a bunch of tires for them. I told him yeah they seem to be pretty good and rolled em in

[EDIT]Btw, I called up a couple places and will get them done at Precision Automotive down here in Redondo for $40...can't wait.

 

why not go with the Sumi Z III? Seems like much better performance for not much more money

 

^depending on how bad you need them most places are sold out of them. I was going to get them myself but it was still another two weeks or so from tirerack and I wasn't trying to wait that long. I had the htrzIIIs and loved them. figured it never hurt to try something different. If I don't like the htrzII I'll be picking up a set of the IIIs. I'd like to do a good review of the htrzII
