    Just got a set of turbo legacy wheels (thanks eric;)) with massive rubber on them. I tried to put them on my 94 impreza but they rub like crazy. So like the title says, I need tires to fit those 15 inch rims. I don't want to get low profile ones cuz I know they're expensinve or Chux style super swamper just yet. Does anyone know what kind of tire i should get and can anyone get me a deal on removal of the old ones and mounting of the new ones. Thanks alot, any help is appreciated.:)

    well......I happened to have the Goodyear Eagle GTII's that came off my pugeot rims, 185/60/15s, I can probably get 'em to ya for a nice deal, if they'll work.

    or I can help you pound fenders, I've had lots of practice...

    If you need a set of dedicated winter tires, I'm selling my set of 195/65-15 Semperit Sport Grip winter tires on 15" steelies in great condition. Let me know if you, or anyone else, are interested. :)

    I looked at several All-Season-Tires and I settled on BFGoodrich Traction T/A V-rated 205/55/15 for my 15" Leggy turbo wheels. They're great. There IS slight hydroplaining at 80mph in wet puddles....but that's 80mph. LOL

    I really like the tread design in these. They're 440 tradwear and TRACTION AA rating. I didn't know they were Traction AA rated. They howl at the limit and have good grip compared to my older Bridgestone Eager 195/60/15.

    The 205 and 195 isn't FAR off at all. It looks just fine. You can take a look at them we I come out to Firestone OR at Todd's this Friday.

    I run BF Goodrich Sport on my WRX, it holds up pretty good in rain, dry and corns pretty well too. The ride is not too bad. And the price is great too. I would suggest getting a set of summer tires and another set of winter tires. You have no idea what you'll be missing if you dont.

    i'd go with any 205/55 or 50/15 series tires if they are a good set for the bucks.
