Okay, the rims are ready

60 series on 14" rims for the X is more than a bit big... Suggest dropping the 60 series idea unless it's a 13" wheel.

Tire choice really depends on what is expected from a tire.. me, Toyo 195/45/14 T1R's from and back for the street car.

Better to have a wider rim than a wider tire. Too wide a tire on too narrow a rim will not support the tire's side wall properly resulting in a lotta un-wanted side wall deflection when cornering.

Regardless, tire choices for the X is not good.... It's due to where the car industry has gone in the US, heavier and bigger cars and the fashion statement of big wheels on low profile tires..

Now to find the correct tire. 50-60 series? I'm having a hell of a time finding what I want.
