so what's your question... you want to know what kind of tires to get? get whatever you want. es100's and azenis are the popular choices here.

do a search on azenis. they wear out quick and are usually used for grip, so for your purposes i doubt they'll be the best choice.

195 is pretty small to run in the front unless you are in a Corolla...but if you aren't having any understeer issues go for it...What size wheels?

yeah come to think of it the last time i drove it i did suffer some understeer but blamed it on wet road conditions the rims are 16's so maybe 205 is the way to go
