195 or 205?

[tom_dot_COM]

I have a 172 ph1 and will be buying new tyres soon, the car will be on coilovers once I fit the tyres. Will porbably be buying either pilots / eagle f1s or paradas. Im undecided. My question is what do people reccommend 195 wide or 205 wide?
What are the handling charicteristics of each?

I started a thread on this a couple of days ago - seems 205s don't affect handling but do increase grip - have a quick look in the thread list.

ph1 172 comes with 195's as standard.

205's were only standard on the 182's.

15" wheels?

195's are about £50 for 15's. 205's are about £30 more, i just got some 205/50/15's
