Its 2 sizes smaller than stock, it will look funny, increase wheel gap and you will get less traction. I swear by these tires. BFGoodrich GForce Sports. They got me a 2.0 60ft without even trying at the track and they come in stock and 255 size. Check them out and they are the same price.

Re: Continental Extreme DWS?
The Continental Extreme DWS are an excellent tire. Very good tread wear and descent handling. I have a set on my Audi TT and love them. They were actually out of stock everywhere I looked for them so I believe they are a popular tire. They received quite good reviews on Tirerack and Discount Tire websites.

Re: Continental Extreme DWS?
I'd pay the $100 for the car to look right and have good traction. Not to mention you will be putting on extra miles with the smaller diameter. Ive heard the tires you want are good, but I just think you'll regret the way the car sits when you put that small of a tire on your IROCZ.
