thanks Mike....
Should I go with 60's or 75's also the stock tire size on the si is 195/75 r15's( I think) and they look like scooter wheels so if move on to 17's will it mess my stock gearing? Do you suggest that I keep the 16" rim?

Ok... so your stock tire size is:

195/75/15 = (195 x .75 x 2) + (15 x 25.4) = 673.5mm diameter right?

Your gearing will remain the same if you buy the right size tire. Do the math and figure out which tires will match your stock diameter, and go with that. It won't matter if you're on 16s, 17s, 18s, or whatever- just match the diameter as close as you can.
