Default 185/65/15 Front Runners





Falken 512 185/65/15
These tires have plenty of tread and are rated to 130 mph. They are almost identical in with to my M/T ET front runners. They are about an inch and a half shorter than the mickey's also. I haven't drove on them a whole lot yet, but they seem good so far. The only draw back I see so far is they are a little noisy. I knew that when i bought them from reading the reviews, anyways I one of the few guys that likes the sound of a noisy car.

What size are those front Welds? And what's the load rating on those tires?

The fronts are 15x3.5. I paid $185 mounted and balanced at discount tire. I think the load rating is 1235, but I'll check to be sure. My car only weights 3065lbs without me, so it's fairly light. I run a 28" tall M/T so I'm not to sure if I would be able to lower it or not.

I run a Futura skinny in the front, the car is nearly stock weight in the front and has a great tread pattern. I rock 40 PSI and have not had any issues. I will check on the rating and exact size when I get a chance.

Also, these did not set off the abs light with a 26" tall rear.
