Tire size question
 
I got a set of Honda factory rims..the 15 spoke ones. The tires are bad and i need new ones. I work at walmart, and was told that some1 ordered some special tires but neva picked them up. so now the store is stuck with these tires and mark them down to try and get rid of them. but they aint the exact size of tires that are on my rims now. the factory tire size for the rims were 195/60/15 and the tires that are marked down are 205/55/15 goodrich traction t/a. first question is will they fit on my rims with no problems of rubbing or anything. second question is if they are good tires.

the other option i had was i need an alignment. and i heard that town fair tire does free alignment with the purchase of 4 new tires. looking at the site for tire size 195/50/15 they got a couple good tires but im tight on money. any advice will help if some1 looked at the tires on town fair, and let me know of any good tires they got in my size.

Thanks alot. hopefully i get this answered before my tires go flat.

These people want 130 for them. When online they 110. And they say they are marked down. Bullshizzz. Might jus get some from townfair. Need that free alignment.

Look at www.tirerack.com. I had some Sumitomo's that were $59 a tire that lasted quite a while and drove nicely.

iight so im stuck on 2 tires.
The Dunlop Signatures and the Goodyear Eagles RSA. What is better to have. a bigger thread wear? the dunlops got 700 where the Eagles got 260.Both have the same speed rating.both have the same temperature and speed rating.load index dont matter much i think..but dunlop got 88 and eagles got 87. eagles are 72 and the dunlops are 81 with a $50 rebate. Which is better? i ask because im not sure about thread wear.

Thanks
