7jj front is okay with 195/55/15 but proper fitment for 8jj should be 205/55/15.
Unless you want some hellaflush look but less practicality.
Achilles ATR sports fit your budget. Falken ZE-522 sucks in wet but it may fit your budget too.
Michelin PS3 already cost 240 apiece.

which brand of 195/55/15 do you all suggest? is going to fit 8jj or 7jj..
budget around RM180 each..
Actually, there are very few choices of 195/55/15 size tyres that you can get with RM180 budget nowadays. IMHO, consider spend a few ringgit more to get decent tyres. It's worth the investment, really.

T1R is okay but I have never try ER300, so, couldn't comment. As for the Indo made Achilles ATR Sports, I used to use it for a few round of drift last time with no issue.
Overly done negative camber setting on Hellaflush style kill off the comfort. One have to give way.
195/50/15 on TE37 or CE28 hellaflush look should be okay on Wira sedan.

I am also currently considering rota style wheels but not hellaflush looks as I prefer practicality.

comfortable??? no it will not be comfortable...u wanna do this kinda mods, comfort is the last thing that should be in ur mind...

and T1R sidewall is soft, so should have a lil more comfort if u really want it...

ER300 no idea

Dear Kendrick92,

Toyo tyres no comment.

Bridgestone Turanza is a good tyre, very silent, comfort and good grips...

But be careful, watch out the manufactured date at the sidewall,

Very likely it could be the 2007 or 2008 year stock.

No matter what tyres we used, hellaflush will never be comfortable. I can't even take corners properly with them :biggrin:
In fact, most of my friend only put on the hellaflush looks during autoshow. They have another set of wheels with standard camber setting for daily ride.
Offset wheels on rota grid is fine. Just make sure to put on the correct tyre width / spacer / fender works to get the handling part.

Toyo T1-R is UHP, good for aquaplane resistance, however soft sidewall and dry grip so so only.
BS Turanza as it is name is mid range tyre. Their Potenza range are more to performance.

Wira if no engine mod 195/50R15 will be better, diameter closer to original size. If want fuller look without lowering then 195/55R15 will fill up the wheel arch but pick up may suffer a little.
