I've got the right wheels to run decent size tires for my car. +53 offset 7.5 wide. I should be able to run 235's EASY no roll. 245's with a roll. I might roll in the summer. We'll see. I think I'll be plenty happy on the daily running 235's though. Wider than most wagons. But the 245's would rip.

This is also the same person who recommended Falkens (forgot the model, 512 ZIEX or something) which were hands-down the worst tires I have ever purchased in my history of owning 30+ cars. Food for thought.

I agree...the 512s were the worst tire I've ever owned as well...even worse that the RE92's.
30 cars...good lord. I've only owned 4. I've run through probably 20 sets or more of tires though.

usually I am balling like Krinkov with Falken RT-615s.
Right now I am mobbing around on some Sumitomo HTR+ all season tires and am actually really enjoying them! They are M+S, kick *** on the dirt, and talk to you on the street.
I have also run on Falken FK-451, ST-115 tires. The ST-115s are comfy, quiet and have a rounded shoulder so you really feel body roll that is not there, it's just the tire. The 451 tires were great too, awesome at the auto-x, and great for rain even.
I've also run the Pirelli PZero Nero M+S. Another great tire, but if you get it too hot, it sucks. Otherwise they are a great tire.
