My daughter's SW2 is in bad need of a new pair of shoes. I was thinking of replacing the stock 185/65/15s with something a bit taller/narrower.

Does anyone out there have experience with this? CarloSW2, yeah, i'm tawkin' to you! Or anybody else that has an S series saturn.

I am thinking that a 185/70 or maybe a 175/75 might work. Being a twin cam, it has the shorter gearing and could easily handle the higher final drive ratio. My daughter learned to drive stick with this thing and it is ridiculously easy to launch. Much easier than my wife's '09 Sonata 5 speed.
