Isn't 205/45r15 a little small? maybe just for tegs.

Gee, I hope no one starts making 195/55r14's or 205/45r15's... that would be sooo stupid :rolleyes:

I hope that works.

yeah... 195/50r15 is the recommended size for 15's on a CRX, but most people up it to 205/50r15 which has been known to cause rubbing problems for some people. Not all people, but some. a 45 series would rock face.

and a 195/55r14 would be a great stock replacement for me... I don't think the 185/60r14's I bought are gunna give me the grip I want from the dig

I work at dobbs, and I have a lot of tires avaliable in those sizes except for the smaller 195/55/14 inch size spork wanted, it seems like a red headed step child

those are some tiny f'in tires. they were prolly only oem on crx's, hence why no one makes them.

thats the point... they just aren't out there. 205/50415 is alright, I just wish there was a more available 45 series. I have found some Toyo's in 205/45, but so far, not a whole lot else. the 45 would be slightly shorter than the 195/50, but a little wider, so I think they would make pretty good road race/auto-x tires :dunno:

edgeracing.com has some toyo proxies in those sizes :dunno:
