Looking for new tires
 
I'm currently using Fuzion ZRi tire 205/50/R16. Reasons i want to change new tires because camber wear on the front tires and i find everytime i went over little bumps on the road, it grinds my liner or fender. Note: I have H&R lowering spring on 1.5" drop

If i change my tires to 205/40/R16 will that solve my situations ? i already have Front and rear camber kit on and done alignment recently.


Any recommendation for me ???

I also heard from someone that if i change to 205/40/R16 it will affect the wheel rotation thingy which i have no idea.:confused:

Some of my friends recommended Falken RT-615 ? are they any good ???:confused:

205/40r16 is approx 6.7% smaller diameter than you are currently running,it'll change your speedo reading approx -4mph (i.e. doing 64mph speedo will read 61mph).Anything greater than 5% dia change can affect the ABS function not to mention its gonna look odd IMO.

Is 205/50R16 stock size?

205/45r16 is only just over 3% smaller,so may be a better option.

go with a 45 series so your speedo does not get too affected

Go 45 series.

Search for size and read the reviews.

Dunlop Star specs, Bridgestone RE11, Kumho XS are all very good high performance tires.
