Get the Dunlop SP5000's...

I have yet to enjoy a better all-season tire.

People, he needs ALL-SEASON tires, which Azenis most DEFINITELY are not.

215's are definitely too wide for 15x6 stock wheels, 205 is already pushing it.

I got rid of my Michelins the week after I bought my car last summer. The only tire I've had since then are these Nankang EX-5000 205/50-15 V-rated tires. I had never heard of them and was kind of skeptical (parents buying, not much choice), but I have to say they have been great tires so far. Although they are not specifically all-seaon tires, dry and wet grip are excellent. I do not feel at all in danger from my tires when driving in the rain. This pic was taken last week, over 26K miles on these tires with still lots of life left.

Well I thought of them being to wide for stock wheels, what if you throw them on 16s or 17s? I know that that would not be a problem but what do you guys think would be better 205s or 215s?

thx
