tire selection
RAO-3,
Note: TIRES ARE EVEN MORE OF A FACTOR THESE DAYS than ever before in making this decision. Seems that many of the remaining/decent mainstream 15" tires are disappearing. Finding 265/50-15s is another one that just dropped for those who run those instead of the 245/60s. I have a few friends who are now caving in and selling their 15s to go wit 17s just because of tire selection and availability and price. If you don't mind spending the extra money there are a few nice/more expensive "specialty" 15" tires out there, but not much of the cheaper radials left like it was two years ago in the lower cost range. Just something to be aware of. Long live the 15" diehards!
