Tire help..

The time is really close for new tires.. and I need some ideas on what tires to get... they have to be good all the way around.. i.e. good traction, ride, traction in rain, etc... I have been looking at Nitto 555s.. (will these even fit my stock rims??) but I want some outside opinions... and I need to know the size for my set-up.. (stock rims)I am a newb when it comes to tires...

Well if you have stock rims im thinking the should fit.
Take mine for example. I have 17in rims. And I have 275 40 zr17 tires
You have to make sure they fit your size.
say like 245 50 16. Just an example. What does the ratings say on those tires?
I dont have them so I dont know how good they are. But ask around.
Plus another best bet is to call..

Ah. Both my '97Z and '99T/A run with Falken 512ZE's, which are W speed rated and come with a 30K mile warranty. I've had these tires for over a year and they work well in all conditions. From Discount/America's Tire I spent about $560 for each car. You could obviously spend alot more, but why? Unless you're road-racing, drag racing, or Tokyo-drifting anything more is just an indulgence, a waste in my opinion...
