I've ran Pep Boy performance 195/60r15 tires before.....heck... I liked them better than the Dunlop D60A2 it replaced.

Try to search around for a set of ES250 front strut tower brace. Does make a difference

what tire size do you have?

Tirerack prices the 195 65 14 at 53 dollars a piece plus like 7-8 dollars shipping per tire. I personally like higher performance tires, because i may not be using them to their full potential 100% of the time, but if I DO choose to have some fun for 15 minutes driving home one day, I feel assured that I will stay on the road, and not on the guardrail

I thought your profile says you put 15" wheels on--- which would have been 195/60 r15 (which is the V6 size)

The stock 4-banger size is 185/70 r14
