All seasons blow below 40*, you can say otherwise all you want but I have yet to find an all season that performs well in the cold and snow. I use them from about May through end of November. Rain, light snow, 6" deep flooded road, ect. They work just fine. Have you used them or are you doing the typical tire shop guy crap of downing a tire with no experience?

Has anyone used or even heard of Achilles atr sport tires? I've read lots of reviews and some guys use them for drifting and are getting great results. Only bad results are from guys running 18/19 in rims so I'm not worried there. They are less than $100 a tire for 205/55/16 and I've never heard of them but might give it a try.

Here's a pic of the ATR Sport;

Had them on one of my civics, just like the Federal SS595 they are great tires for the price and are underated.

Yeah, reminds me of when Kuhmo started into the tire business and were underrated back then. I found them on 1010tires so shipping is cheap and they are canadian so no extra border crossing fees. It's actually the cheapest I have found as of now.

Suggested wider, but similar diameter tires on stock 15s?

I just hit 60k and it's time for new tires. Any thoughts on wider sizes for the stock 15s that won't affect my diameter? or at least minimal effect on the diameter.

I've seen 215/60/15 on an earlier thread. Seems kind of wide for that wheel. Anyone know where I can find some pics of other sizes on the stock 15s?

So I'm about to pull the plug on some wheels, but I can't decide on offset. I'm going with 17x7's, and probably putting 225/45-R17 Pilot Super Sports on it. I'm thinking of ordering them et45 and if that doesn't cut it then I can space it to 40.

Thoughts?

(Seemed better to have here than in the other thread)

That will work, but offset depends on the width of the wheel you want and how close you want it to the fender. There are plenty of pics in this and the aftermarket wheel thread to help you determine what offset will suit your needs.

Mmm I'm seeing some camber action on my sonic now :😛

Thinking about getting some 205/40/17 tires to replace my 225/45/17. I'm rubbing a little in the front at full turn.

Update on my taller and wider tires. I've got rubbing in the RF during hard cornering and a noticeable increase in sidewall flex.

I know...TSW's site only lists the Nurburring (sp)...so I'm confused why this site list this (and quite a few others) that other sites don't...

but say if it did... an 8" wide 40mm offset will fit?
