215/60-r15 Kumho ectsa H-rated.
Worst all-season tire I've ever seen in my life. Holds good to wet roads when they are new. 6 months later, tire-chunkage removes half the tread and you start having little traction on wet roads.
pos tires.
Best tires I've had on my seven: Eagle GTIIs on 4 corners. They were perfect and outperformed these kumhos even in snow/ice.

205/55/16 front and 225/50/16 out back, maxing out my rather small 16x7s. Toyo Proxes T1-S. Suck it. It never snows here, and those tires are absurd when things get slippery.

Just put brand new Toyo Proxes 4's 225/50/16 on my TII rims. Awesome all around tire. Although I'll miss the burnouts and drifts I could pull in the crusty *** cooper lifeliner tires that were on before. I even tried drifting it in the rain and couldn't break it loose with these toyo's.

one quick question... why do people with na's put larger tires on the rear of their cars? I can understand turboII owners doing so because of the ability to break the rear end free at will.

Seriously - cosmetics is a large part of it. Most people prefer the look of larger rear tires. In my case, I tripled my torque output and I don't care how the car handles. But the average FC isn't like that, and a bit more tire on the rear just looks better. Not to mention will handle a little better, even if you don't have the power of a larger motor or a turbo. More rubber = more grip, all other things being equal.
