Yes - going from the P275/60R15 ET Street Radial Pro to the P325/50R15 ET Street R, I would expect to see an improvement in traction.
Thanks,

Waiting to see more sizes in 16" preferably... With that thread design I don't think there is a need to go down to 15" wheel. I'm excited

It would be nice if they made a 16"....They have 3 sizes of 17s, yet no 16s in a normal street size.. WTF
If they would come out with a 295/50/16, it would save a LOT of people a LOT of money from doing the 15" conversions...

What do you guys think about 305/45-17 in that size? Think it will fit or too tall?

What wheel would you mount them on? I have a fender flares so I don't want to put them on a 17x9.5 repo wheel. I was thinking the old 17x11 ZR1 replicas but they are ugly and even painted, wouldn't look right with my fronts. Any other options?
