what size?

The bridgestone site says they dont do the 205/50/15 you said you originally had, so I assume you went for the 195/50 instead?

205x55x15

Cos the time difference to set +0.2mm toe against +0.5mm toe is huge. Must charge $50 extra for that. And if you have. Then you are the sucker.

here's a couple of photos of the car with the 205x55x15 tyres on it. suspension is standard and I have no plans to improve or lower it. appears to be a fair bit of room on the rear section not 100% sure on the front wheels.
I took it for a run and it appears solid and no scraping under the guards etc. although they look a bit wider than the kuhmo ecsta lx 205 x50 x15 they replaced.
any thoughts looking at these photos or all good
