Ok, cool.. so would you guys recommending just sticking w/ 195/60/15 or going with the 215/55/15? Thanks again, also, someone told me that 215s might rub my wheel well? This true? And one other thing, will 215s fit on my 15x7 rims? Thanks again

Just moving this up because I am now looking at tires more and more and I wanted to make sure that 215/55/15's will fit on 15x7 rims and they won't rub. Anyone know of this for sure? Thanks again

21550 is very good, is the perfec for the tibu.
But 19555R15 is more the same to a 20550R15
I sead that becouse y work in a tire center.

21550 go more up, like 12 in.But is a good tire for your car.

I can't go with 205/50/15s, it will throw off my speedo/odo too much.. I've pretty much decided on the 215/55/15s as long as I get confirmation from someone here that they will fit my 15 by 7" rims, and that they won't rub in the wheel well... Thanks for the help!
*** Bah, nevermind, I just looked on Tirerack.com and I can't find any tires size 215/55/15.. so I think I will go w/ the 205/55/15s.. Kumho ECSTA Supra 712's. That miata tire size site listed above in a post on this thread says that I'll only be off by .8 MPH at 60 MPH.. so that's okay by me.. Thanks again everyone
