    205/60-15 is the largest tire we know to fit the OE wheel (you'd have to go to a 16" wheel to do a 225) Tire choice all depends on what your needs are (concerns about wet traction, durability, comfort, etc)

    i am more concern more on performance but not on semi slick and slick tire. any performance tire will fit that 205/60-15 or 205/ lower profile in 15 inches?

    Two primary options we have is BFG G Force Sport and Yokohama ES 100 (neither a super high performance model, but with 15" applications its getting harder and harder to get the newer models)

    Iv driven on ES100's. They are nice tires. They offer great grip and wet and dry traction. Iv also taken it to the track as well... They didn't do too well in super hot conditions but they held up pretty well.
