When I bought my 95 it came with new Toyo Proxes 4 tires on the stock wheels. A very good tire in my assessment in rain and dry conditions & not at all noisy. I switched up to 17" wheels and 225/45/17 Nero Zero M&S and although I sense a little more tire noise, the grip is better. They aren't a good choice for real winter driving but in wet or dry conditions, they do a better job. Gotta keep in mind though that the difference in the tire profiles also contributes to the observed improvement. If you factor cost in, you may well be better off with the Proxes 4 and I would speculate longer wear with the Toyo's also. Just my .02$
