I have 195 60HR14 Dunlop D60 A2s on mine. The stock were 17565R14 on stock alloy rims, which are 5.5" wide. Although the tires and the rim are compatible, next time I will go with 185 60HR14 since the 195s are wearing too much in the middle. If you go with 195s, go with a 55 series tire.
I have se-r rims and they are wrapped on firestone firehawks 225/50/15 and I have strut tie bars on front and rear and about to lower it too but w/o the lowering springs the g's I pull are INSANE
Hmm,
225's on SE-R rims? How wide are those rims? I'm running 195s which is 6 inches (NX2K rims). 175 is 5.5 inches (stock steelies). Are you running 7-8 inch rims?

P.S. They are Pirelli HP's and 14 inches on the inside.
a friend of mine traded wheels with me, he traded his '89 Pulsar NX SE wheels with my factory 175/65 14's, then i wrapped it in 195/55/14 kumho victoracers for the track and fondmetal 6700's (white) with 205/55/16 yokohamas for the street.....Pulsar's wheels were 14x6's from the factory....
I am running 17" enkei 8 spoke rims. They are riding on 205-40 TR 17 Falken tires. I have a 2" drop and on stock struts. It rides okay but it just takes some used to. I will buy aftermarket ones after these need replacement.
