Cookie cutters up front

[Nis]

I picked up my GN last May, and it came with 15x165/50's I beleive. On Weld Draglites. It's sad I don't even know whats on my car. I know there not ment for the street, and it's mostly driven on the street. I'd like to move up to a 205. What I'm asking is what size width draglite should I buy?

drag skinnies arent for the street , thats where 90% of your braking is and a 4" wide patch of rubber isnt meant to stop 3800lbs on the street

get 15x6 or 15 x7 rims for the front and go with 215/65 , the 215/65 were stock but still look skinny

I ran a 15x6 with 3.5" back spacing Draglites on my old Limited with a 205/70/15.

The tire raised the front end enough to match the 15x8 295/50/15 Hoosier QT that I drove daily, and also matched the 28x12.5 ET Streets on 15x10s as well. Tread width is right at 7" wide and stopping power is maintained while still looking like a skinny tire. BFG makes a nice Traction T/A in this size.
You could go with a 15x5 with the same back spacing, but it would make the tire bulge just a little more.

I currently run this tire on my current T on the factory 15x7 T wheels.
