Okay, well i just bout some Tenzo DC-5's 17x7.0 for my v6 coupe and i've found some tires and if yall could help me with the decision!

I need some input!
Falken Ziex ze-512 - 235/45/17
Goodyear Eagle F1 - 235/45/17

If you think i should go with a different size tire let me know!

Thanks! :thumbsup:

eagle gt. much better tire than the ziex. I know because I install both types all day long. and yes, 235 is way too wide for a 7. run a 215 or 205.

Section width of 205 or 215 is what you want, guy I work with had gt's on his 04 Maxima and didn't care for them, but people's experiences with tires differ greatly and are most often subjective. Read up and pick what you want.

Goodyears over falkens all day long. Not to bash anyone using them. Just had bad experience with them as well as friends.

50 is closest to factory height

actually, a 215/45 is closer to factory specs than a 215/50, not to mention a 215/45 would just look better and not like a balloon.

i have 215/45's on my 17x7 rh's and i wouldnt get any other size.

op, go with a 215/45 with whatever tire you want. read online reviews about them and make your decision.​
