Wider tire on stock rim 205/65-15
Wider tire on stock rim 205/65-15
What other size of tire can I put on the stock sawblades 205/65-15 , I'm thinking of something wider?
The Dunlop sport A2's seem to be what most ppl here like, but are they quiet and comfy too?

Um...
on 95-96 Maximas, 205/65 and 215/60 are both OEM sizes...
Any one know anything about the Bridgestone potenza 930i (can't find info on it on tirerack/firestone.com) thats what COSTCO has for the 15"'s ... andy they have many different expensive michellins too.
For 16"'s COSTCO has the potenza 950's, about which I've read quite a few good things on tirerack
