sorry to bump an old thread, but I just put new tires on my 07 yaris sedan and only the 185/65r15s were in stock. I went with these and according to gps, my speedometer is dead on??? I guess it was way off with the original size?

btw, I bought the cheapest tire at discount tire....gt radial champiro vp1 @ $44 each, $265 otd. they are made in china, but had good reviews. I love the new tires so far, very smooth and quiet.

Very decent commuter tyres at a great price! Yes, they have good reviews... and you'll find that the tread pattern provides straight line tracking at highway speeds. (The Yaris speedo isn't accurate out of the box).

I had the misfortune to run over a nail spill a couple of weeks ago & managed to acquire 10 nails in one of the original Goodyear tires so I decided that I might as well buy a new set of tires.

I picked up a set of Uniroyal Tiger Paw A/S65 tires and I have no complaints especially when driving on wet roads.....as a matter of fact I would say that these tires are outstanding when driving in the rain.
