Default Need new tires, What size to get

Well i have have konig free falls which are 15 x 6.5.

I think they have 195*55*15's on there now but they need to be replaced. I was hoping to get some tires with a little bit more sidewall but don't know what size to get.

Can anyone recommenced a size with a bit more meat on the sides? These NYC streets are not to forgiving and can use all the sidewall i can get.

Yeah that's the tire size for the tires in my sig pic. I wanted something with a bit more sidewall so i can have a better ride. I guess ill have to speak with the tire guy when there but wanted to have an idea of what to ask for.

They are pretty good tires, but also look at Falkens in 205/50/15. The 912s are highly-rated.

Of course, you'd have a much bigger selection in 16-inch sizes......
