Flounder -
FWIW - I just picked up a set of Falken 185/60HRx13 for my Bugeye. This are
mounted on 6" Vega GT rims, but would also fit on 5". Warranted for 60k
miles. Intended for street use & a lot of freeway use (under the legal speed
limit, of course). I've read & heard a lot of good stuff about the Falkens.
