    I thought you were concerned about sidewall height?

      I'm going with 205/50, that was a typo. It was supposed to read 50.

          maybe consider the G-Force KDW2s in place of the sports. I've been pretty happy with their rain performance, and I believe the compound is the same.

            KDW's are getting into the $115 each or so range, and the G-Force are $74 each.

            The only tire that comes in 215/45 from Discount Tire is the Hankook Ventus R-S2, and they're $96 each. I'm trying to stick with Discount Tire because they have free shipping. I'm sticking with the G-Force sports, tho. I might look around here in town and see if there's anywhere that sells BFG's, and just buy them locally.
