yea its the designated tire and grreeaat for crusing cus they are tall and skinny but for a kid who likes to beat around town in his car... put it this way, they squeel like crazy takin a turn at 5mph . you have almost no traction its retarded so just get a new set of what u have now. i went and got new tires and they people looked up the factory recogmended tires and put those on after i was already drivin for a year on the 175/70s. i was rippin pissed the second i left the shop almost died cus my front end just came out from under me and slid with the turn
