I agree. In fact I run 155's on the rear of my Protege on 13" Nissan wheels. I scan Craigslist every now and then and buy up as many used 155's as I can because they are slowly becoming extinct. I leave the 185/65R14's on the front so I still have good grip when keeping up that momentum around corners.
Question: is it true that a tire with less tread depth will have lower rolling resistance [less tread squirm] than a new tire? Or is this urban legend?
