WOO! Got my new tires installed today. Bridgestone Potenza G019 Grids in 225/55R16. They look so aggressive!
I was wondering, what would you guys recommend for inflation for that tire? Tires Plus put them at 35 psi all around. I was thinking around 38 may do the job.
Pics! I would be interested to see what this size looks like.

I guess he has money to burn. I'd rather waste my money on parts that actually make my car faster, hookers, and drugs. Fucking amateurs. :

Damn, looks like you live on a farm. Looks better. I like the wider tires. They dont look as low profile as I thought they would but thats due to the tire being wider I guess. Still big improvement though. I bet they feel a ton better. I def. see some toe looks like a little camber too. Our cars have a negative camber, I think, so it may not be off at all.

Installed my TSX IM today. Took me an hour including gathering tools and cleaning up. Big difference over stock.

Yeah, I'm going to have my parents run my car back over at the place to see if they can recheck the balancing. They're going to do an alignment check too. The guy told me that it's usually recommended to get an alignment done with you get new tires, so chances are that's what will happen.
As far as performance goes, aside from the shuddering, they perform great. Although, I would like to have them feel a little stiffer. That's just my preference, though. I like a stiffer tire rather than a mushy one. I'll get over it though. I went around a 30mph curve going 50mph while swerving around in the lane, and the tires held right on. No squeals or anything. I can take a hard right turn going 30mph with ease. Maybe faster, but at that point it's pretty hard to be able to cut that steering wheel fast enough to stay in the turn without swerving onto the other lane. The only thing I want to fix now is the front body roll. Time for an OEM v6 6spd strut bar and a DC sports bar!
Back OT, I showed off my car to some of my friends at school today. They loved the aggressive looking tires, lol.
