im going to get 205/55R15 when mine needs replacing...BUT some ppl say 205 on a 5.5" rim is asking for trouble but on YW they say its fine...dunno who to trust.

Abit exxy 119 per and including wheel alignment 500 all up @ Jax Southport... i need wheel alignment coz the handling dont feel right after i blew my steel rims thanks to a rather deep pot hole...

Size is 195/55R15... Jax said a 185/60 a Michelin will set me back 180 plus... and a Nexus is 150 per

My other friend told me that Swift's Bridgestone Potenza (quoted at Jaz Springwood @ $128 per) is better than my Falken ZE329 in terms of handling but I told him that my treadwear is 480 where as the Potenza is 140... so should last me a good while since I do a lot of highway driving at the moment...

FYI treadwear the higher the number the better...
