tyres

[culshaw 1]

I have recently bought a 2.0 16v and am looking at getting some decent tyres for it,

 

the current tyres I got are 195/45/15 V so I was wondering will 50 profile fit fine (it's been lowered 30mm) as they are cheaper :)

 

was looking at either:

 

Pirelli 6000's: http://www.blackcircles.com/information ... d=11024628 (£150 for 4 inc. fitting)

Toyo T1R's: http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php? ... 03s99p1667 (£120 on they're own)

 

welcome to other suggestions as well!

 

Cheers

They should be 50's anyway - not 45's...

 

I'd look at Goodyear Eagle F1's and Uniroyal Rainsport 2's - better than the above and around the same price...

Try spare deal tyres in wollaton(specifically wollaton vale, opposite the co-op), Ben is really good there can get you whatever you desire, local to you at a decent price too, been using him forever so if u rock up in the rado, he will know it and tell him I said give u discount :wink:

 

....... oh and not to be picky but its been lowered by 40mm :tongue: :grin:

Highly rate the PX4's great wet weather tyres and pretty awesome in the dry too... had 195/50/15's on the estsorils...

Try HERE best price I found for Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 195/50/15s :clap:

Don't forget your local supplier who can often do good deals or price match :)

Maybe a daft question, BUT, how detrimental would it be to fit 195/50/15's on the VR? Considering they should have 205's fitted.

 

Obviously only 10mm difference in width on each tyre, but the prices seem quite a bit different between the 2 sizes.

 

Anyone else done this already?

 

Cheers

I'm running 195/50/15s on 7"x15" rims with no problems at all on my little valver, what's the VR got width-wise
