Default I might need tires soon as well.

Would a 195/65/15 tire do it for an 05 Neon SXT

a tad thick if u ask me..... u will get a lot of unwanted body roll or reallllllly soft cornering which could cause understeer or oversteer.... i would go 195/60/15 or 195/55/15 if i were you....

205/55R15 would be a closer size match to stock. If you want to go 4 seasons with them the BF Goodrich Traction T/A would do well.

I have 14" rims and my next tire will be the 205/60R14 Traction T/As to replace my current 185/65R14s. Suppose to fit our stock rims although you will not get full benefit of the tire capabilities until you get wider rims still better than 185s or 1195s.
