RE: Recommendation for tires
Stick with brands like Yokohama, BFgoodrich, Kumho (not the 711s) Bridgestone, General, Goodyear, Nitto etc and you will be safe. Check tirerack.com and read the reviews and survey results to help you decide.
"205" is the width of the tire in millimeters, from sidewall to sidewall. "45" is the aspect ratio of the sidewall height to the width of the tire. And of course you know that "16" is the diameter or radius of the wheel.
All seasons are good if you have a lot of snow and ice in your area. If you just get a lot of rain and sun, a summer tire will do just fine. Oklahoma winters have become so mild I just roll the summer tires all year long. Some people keep their stock wheels with all seasons on them and swap them out in the winter. All seasons usually last a lot longer than summer tires but most of the time lack in grip and performance.
