magiging matagtag ang ride mo at lower ng konti ang clearance mo. bakit mo sir gagawin 50 series? para ba mas maganda tignan? i suggest increase mo width to 205 para ma maintain mo yung diameter at mas maganda kapit sa daan.

manipis na kasi yung mga tires ko bro. kya mgpapalit ng brand new. . kya ittry ko sana mag 50 series tires. .

[yourman_2nd]

pwede yan, yun nga lang, mas mababa ng konti kaya dapat laparan mo para maintained ang height. 205/50/15 bilhin mo.

Smaller tires will change your gearing. You'll be doing 100-200 rpms more at 100 km/h than before, which makes for worse fuel economy but slightly better acceleration. The ride will get a bit worse, the handling a bit better.

If you're doing it for reasons of economy, don't bother. You'll save more gas sticking with the bigger tires.

Not necessarily terribly matagtag... just more so than 55 series.

The difference in weight between 50-55 series tires of the same make and model is a mere 1-2 pounds per tire. If there is any. You're only losing a strip of rubber less than half an inch tall around the circumference of the tire. And worse, if the model you buy in 195/50 is naturally heavier (say, it has a rim protector, since it's a low profile tire), then it may even be heavier, despite being smaller.

This is not to say lightweight tires are not worth it, but that going down in size is not a guarantee that the tires will be lighter.

Going series 50 tires will slightly affect the speed reading you will get on the car's speedometer. The handling will feel sharper but you will feel more of the road imperfections too. It might be more tiring to you to ride on series 50 tires. Otherwise, there is no issue mechanically with using series 50 tires on your car.

I used to ride on 195/55r15 on my corolla but switched to series 55 for a more comfortable ride.

Unless you're buying it to go racing... and if you wanted to go racing, you'd upsize to 205/45R16... there's really no point.
