Yes. Might be better to go with at least a 40 series tire though.

well the 40-series is $145 and the 35-series is $110 a tire, after getting four tires I save $140 dollars. do you think I should still go for the 40 series?

i have 35 on my 18s
it is so easy to fuck up your rim
i wished that i bought 40s.

never get 35 for daily drive

when you hit bumps and potholes does the tire just squish since the sidewall is so short and then hit your rim?

35 is like rubberbands around the tire...40 is much more meaty...my friend had 35 series on his rsx and he hated it
