Thinking about replacing my OEM tires on my 2006 with RT-615's. I've heard from a few people that these are great tires, because they have very good traction, and can also perform well in rain..

Opinions?

Also, if I wanted to use my stock 18" rims (enthusiast model), what tire sizes would you guys recommend?

Thanks!

 

I think are discontinued and replaced with the RT-615's. They were a very sticky tire, good for auto-x but scary in the rain. I would run 245/40 front and 255/40 rear.

 

Wow I meant to write 615's. Not 215's. Aren't 615's supposed to be decent in the rain? At least better than OEM tires?

 

The 615's are better in the rain than the previous 215's. I never had the OEM Bridgestones so I can't really make that comparison. Everything I read tells me the stockers are absolute crap, so the 615's probably would be a slight improvement in the rain.

 

Would they be a good improvement in dry conditions?

 

The RT615's are awesome tires and I would really recommend them. They grip extremely well in the dry and as others have mentioned they have improved over the 215's in the rain. It might be a little hard to find them in alot of sizes though.

i just put them on lat week sticky as hell love them i just put them in the back i got 255/40/18

 

I wish they made them for a 19" wheel!

 

I have the 615's as well but on my 9.5" wheels. These tires are awesome in the dry, not too bad in the wet. But dont expect great 60ft times with them at the drag strip like the previous version. I like these tires though, overall they perform really well on the street and track/auto-x.
