Tire size change

Im getting tires for the Daewoo leganza. Stock size is 205/60 15 but I am getting 195 65 or 185 65. Kumho Power Star 758 (35 psi) or Sumitomo HTR 200 (51 psi)

David,

Check out the Sumitomo HTR T4 as an alternative to the HTR 200:
http://www.wsj.consumerreports.org/wsjreport140a.html

The T4 is specifically rated "excellent" low rolling resistance by consumer reports, and they're 2.3 lbs lighter per tire than the HTR 200, giving you the additional efficiency of less rotating weight.

Steve

Unfortunatly, Discount doesn't carry Sumitomo. I got kumho 758's instead.

Isn't is ironic some all terrains are better LRR's than some summer tires?
