What size tyre?

Recommended Posts

Should I be using on 16" wheels?

 

The tyres supplied with the car are 55 profile, and scrub quite badly.

 

Wheels are ET7.

What car do you have?? - sound like MK4 type profiles.. ET7!?!

 

I'm running 195/45/16's on ET35 and they are perfect - a width of 205 and 40 profile would also be ok.

I have a Corrado VR6, I may have misread the offset, it was just at quick glance in the dark.

 

I was planning on getting 45 profile tyres tbh, any recommendations?

 

I'm after something with a good "bang for buck" (ie. Something that performs well, for a decent price) - They don't particularly have to last long - just until I'm in a better position to buy better tyres :) (and after having to buy a new coilpack today, now isn't that time :( )

TBH there is not much difference in price between cheap and good tyres to make it worth skimping

 

I bought 4 Pirelli P Zero Nero's in 195/45/16 for £200 from Best Buy Tyres and got a free Pirelli bag with them... best tyres i've ever used tbh - I can't even tell the difference between a wet and a dry day they are so good.

 

If you want to save a bit I think the Rainsport 2's are slightly cheaper and also superb tyres.
