| That's the size closest to stock though..  I think 205/55/15 will be closer to stock. Is it coz u wanna have a smaller wheel in circumference to improve pickup? |

| actually stock size is 195/55/15... the height is therefore: 10.725cm height of tire from road to the rim 205/50/15 is 10.25 cm height 205/55/15 is 11.275 height I guess it is a bit smaller by 5mm ... it won't affect sprint speed at all becos it's 10mm wider... and 'more friction' compared to 195mm... or did i get the stock tire size wrong?... didn't notice there was 205/55/15 tires...

| Hmmm.. Stock size is 195/55/15? I always thought it's 195/60/15. That means my tire size is not correct then. |
