| I have. Went for 205/55/R15. Ride has become a little hard now, which was expected. I'll not recommend 16". 50 profile will not be good for our roads. |

| You have two options in 15". - 195/60-R15 - 205/55-R15 60 profile will obviously be more comfortable. 205 will obviously be wider!  You chose what you want. |

| I have bought Logan two years ago. Wheels were tyre dimension of 165/80/R14. The second official dimension for R14 is 185/70. Higher modification of Logan in our country is producing with dimension 185/65/R15. Use of other dimensions will break conditions of a manufacturer's warranty.
I have changed my tyres 165/80 on 185/70, only because of bad friction. |

| Hey Logan bros....
A question here, I am looking for new shoes and rims and i am being offered 5 rims(Prestige) and 5 tyres(Goodyear NCT 5) 195x55 R15 for about 20k. He ll keep the stock ones which are 6000kms old. Does it sound like a deal worth considering???

| Adam,
195/55 is a wrong upsize.
When upsizing, the difference in rolling radius should not be +/- 2%.
Correct upsize for stock size 185/70 R14 would be 195/60 R15.
For more info, check this URL: http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html
Also, do look for Yokohamas or Michelins or even Goodyear GIIIs if they fit in your budget. The price he's giving is quite okay, but do try crosschecking with other dealers as well. And insist on buying tyres with a bill & warranty. There is a lot of imported/grey crap out there. |

| I can only talk about Delhi right now. There are only a handful of active members from Delhi/NCR. If you guys want I can start a new thread in the offtopic section and take it from there.
My choice would be not just meet, but to go for a short drive to a nearby place.. such as Neemrana.. would be a great photo-op as well! |
