Searched but theres a lot of conflicting info

I was leaning towards 225/55/16 but 205/50/16 seems to be pretty popular. Which is the best fit for a the stock rim?

These are a decent price locally: http://discounttires.com/product_detail.php?c=OTlkODJjMmZlZjdkZjMyMWRlMWIwZ jJlNTNlMTZjMWE=&prodID=6026

205/55/16 is the stock size for the 16" 5-lug S15 SE wheel.

Yeah i'm using the stock 16inch LE rims, the nicer s14 ones. I like the stock look and have other stuff to spend $$ on unfortunately :(

oh wells, cheaper tires i guess ahaha. i can get federals 595s for 280 all around brand new. not bad.

225/55... would be a nice look and a wider tire for a s14
205/50... not to much sidewall there for an s14

205/50 for me. less sidewall play in the canyons.

205/55/16 is stock...I've gone 225/50/16 on stock SE wheels. Only thing is that itll bulge out. Thats probably the widest you'd wanna run on a 6.5" wheel.
