Hello what do u guys think?? good buy??

[Zenki Two40]

well, for our cars u probably should get some 205/45/17's. here's the tire sizes i would get, even though the ones u mentioned would work.

15"- 205/60/15
16"- 205/50/16
17"- 205/45/17

ya I can different sizes im just wondering if that sounds like a good price??

Why do you guys want 205's so badly?  Those are going to be really skinny on big wheels.  For 17's I'd get at least 215 45/17's.  Personally I want to get 16 x 7 inch wheels in the spring with 225/45/16's for autocrossing.

What will these tires be used for?   Auto-x or just street?

205.... that is soooooo thin. I would never put that on my car, but I guess if you got a 6.5 or 7" rim then go ahead.

205 is usually just what most ppl offer w/ tire packages for the most part. i think i'll probably want some 215's or 225's.

but if youve got a 4bolt like i do, good like finding a wheel over 7 inches.

That is a good price.  They may be skinny but for the money they keep your rims off the road.  I have 215/40/17 on my car but I got some falkens and they are garbage and cost a lot more than $269
