Default ??Tire Question??

just recently got myself some new wheels (15x6.5) and was curious what tire sizes people were running on them or recommend...i was thinking 205/50/15? actually, the real question i guess, would be, how wide would you recommend? is 205 kinda wide?

thanks guys

I'd think like 215 would be the max you could go on a 6.5" wheel. But don't hold me to that, I'm not a wheel expert by any means.

no bigger then 215. 215 makes for a nice fit on a 6.5 inch rim. anything bigger can fit... but bows really bad and makes your car feel like its floating. I would choose 205 or 215
