[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 439286, member: 15"] Yee, it all depends on what car you are driving and what you are striving for? Performance, looks or both? To add on to what most have said, even with bigger rear tires the car can be setup to have a neutral handling with camber plates and anti roll bars and you have a higher traction limit. I would go for wider tires, more grip is always good. For my own car, I went from 255/40/19 to 265/30/19 (rear), and there is so much more grip that makes driving an absolute JOY! :) As for driving in the wet, no matter how narrow your tires are it is always advisable to drive slow. Have you all noticed how many local and jap cars with narrow tires involved in accidents when it's raining?!! Cheers [/QUOTE]
