Hey Folks,

This is my first post after lurking for a few weeks. I am looking to replace the 195/55/16 Dunlop Summer Tires with All-Season tires on 06 MC. I've been looking at 205/50/16s but am also curious about 205/55/16s due to more choices and slightly more comfortable ride.

Anybody out there using 205/55/16 All-Seasons now? Any issues to report?

Perhaps i'll answer my own question, at least somewhat:

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Arial, Helvetica]"A tire trick I have discovered is that the 205/55-16 tires tend to be made for OEM specifications as there are so many cars with this size. The 205/50-16 is not an OEM tire and they tend to be a "better', that is to say, stiffer and more aggressive tire within the same model..."
