      The tires on my car right now are 205/60/14 512's. Should I go with 195/65's or stay with the 205/60's?
      Yeah, 912 over anything else for an all-season. I'm not sure they make the 205/60 anymore, but either is fine.

        Big upgrade all around (and they last like twice as long). Shocking upgrade in the wet.

        I've had at least 1 set of each.

          So, Potenza Re010s, Dunlop Direzza Sport Starspec z1s or Falken Anzenis 615s?

          For daily driving and autocross.

            RE010...that's a random tire. Isn't that what came stock on 97+ NSXs? .....wtf why do I know that? :(

            Nothing is touching the Star Spec right now. Nothing.

                  would you consider bfg kdw2 close to kuhmos mx's auto-x wise, kdw2's being a auto-x worthy tire? just trying to find a good 225/45/16. Where i work cant get rs2's anymore and they sold the set i was saving, now im looking for something else. i can get the kdws.

                    MXs were never really that great at auto-x to begin with. KDW2s are awesome.

                          In my opinion, yes.

                            Looking to run 14 inch snows on stock BBS 1991 318is rim. I believe the rim is 14 x 6. Can I use 185/60R14 on this rim.. Having a hard time finding the right size snow I am looking for..
                            Thanks..

                              It's 14x6.5, and mounting that size is no problem (I'm assuming it's for your '02).

                              Finding good winter tires in odd sizes is so much harder in the states. We have all of these European lines that don't even bother marketing down there, makes it really cheap/easy to get them here.

                                Snows are for 318is.. I have Hakkapeliitta's RSI on my 325iX. They are good-actually great so I would like something on the 318is as back up.. What other tires can I run on the stock rim for snows?
