I have 185/15 on the car now. I was lead to believe that this size converts to
205/70 15. I don't even know what the numbers mean and how a 205/55 differs 
from a 205/70.

Is there an objective source for tire performance out there?
I don't care so much about speed rating, but would like to know what is going 
to keep that back end from getting a mind of its own in the corners.
