Default Decent tires for an Integra?

Jim and others,

I'm looking for a decent replacement tire for my wife's 2000 Integra GS-R.

The Michelins it comes with are fairly bad in the dry, but really suck in the wet.

We're hoping to find something a bit better without spending too much.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,

Ted

Do you need any cold and snow traction? If not take a look at the Yoko ES100 or the Dunlop SP9000 in the OE size. You may want to look at the 205/50R15 as well. There are a lot more options.
Let me know if I can help.

Jim,

thanks for the suggestions.

Cold: some, but rarely freezing. Snow, very rarely; we've slapped chains on the Michelins once or twice, but don't expect any traction.

What would be the pros and cons of 205/50R15 vs OEM 195/55R15? Lower sidewall for stiffer ride? I assume that size will fit OK on her stock wheels, right?

What about these two All-Season tires?

Sumitomo HTR+

BFGoodrich Traction T/A V

They have good user ratings on your site.

Thanks again,

Ted
