Tire suggestions 205 60 R15

I dont have money to buy new wheels (I will eventually run 17s with low profile tires) . My tire size on my stock rims are 205 60 R15. Grip is the most important to me, followed by tread wear. I dont care about how loud they are. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I was able to scoop up a brand new set of BFG G-Force Sport's for $64/tire a ways back from tire rack in 225/50/16.

Might want to check into that. A bit wider couldn't hurt...

I agree, they're good street tires, in both dry and rain. They're great for the price.

Not going to win you any autocross events though... if you JUST want grip, you should buy some slightly wider wheels and get 225 or wider width Falken Azenis tires.

just depends on what you want .. for grip i've heard good things about the falkens RT615's a little pricey but not too crazy or some es100's by yokohama... alot of people in the canyons run the rt615's even most of the falken drift team... good luck
