I got a new set of rubber ordered today! I've been waiting for a good deal on tires, and I finally just pulled the trigger. I ended up going with Hankook Kinergy ST 185/60R14 tires for the OE steel wheels I have (they currently have extremely bald Dunlop Enasaves on them). They have a decent rebate deal going on right now. I am really looking forward to having a LRR (low rolling resistance) tire on the car to see what it does for fuel economy. The current wheel and tire setup looks nice, but it really doesn't seem to roll the best. It has a set of alloy wheels with Fuzion HRi tires in the same size.

These tires are what I found after doing a roundup of fuel efficient tires that fit on our OE wheels:

Fuel efficient tires for 14" OE wheels

Here are my enasaves from when I picked up the car!
