snow tires

[JrCRXHF]

i could not find what i was looking for in search but it might be there.

i would like to run some 205/60/16 snow tires on my 92 laser rs awd this winter the car is stock hight with stock wheels will the 60 series fit.

or should i pay 20 bucks more per tire for the 55 series.

My first question is WHY do you want to use 60 series tires? It'll throw your speedometer off, and not really give you any benefits. If you really wanted to use a 60 series tire, then 195/60/16 would be the best fit, and still keep your speedometer somewhat accurate. As for the price - check around.

I use Dunlop Wintersport M2s in 205/55/16 and they are simply amazing in the snow.

Is your car stock? I wasn't aware they made the laser in an awd model? Or did they just not make it awd for the 90-91 style?

Yes, the Laser came with AWD from 92-94. The Model Guide will confirm that for you if you need it.

Guess I missed that when i was researching for my car. I know I wanted a 5speed and turbo and that I like the lasers over the talons and eclipses (I know thier mostly the same but thier are some styling differences) but I didn't think the lasers came with awd so I ended up with a fwd one. Well, for the $300 I spent I guess I can't complain.

the main reason for the 60 series was they were 20 bucks a tire cheaper so that is why i was thinking i might want to go with the 60 series i really don't care to much about the speedo issue cause i don't speed that much anyway in this car it is just my winter car. but that is a good idea about the 195/60/16 i might want to check into that.

Go with the 55s, screwing your speedo up also means screwing up your odometer.

Side note: Blizzacks are the best snow tires EVER!

yeah i can get the glacier grips 2 for 68 bucks a tire

so that is why i am going to go with that tire...but yeat blizzacks are really cool good tires.
