So you want 195/50/15s for you car BUT can only find them in 195/50/15.

Surly its a typing error or you have answered your own question.

The rainsport how do they compare with the original f1?? Especially in sidewalls and steering feel.
Has anyone tried both?

Yes the original f1 was quite a good summer tyre. The rainsport is absolutely s**t in anything other than pouring rain, the tread blocks are so flexible they have your car wallowing about the road... Do not buy rainsports...I repeat do not buy rainsports...

And they are a very good tyre! Bit underrated on this site with most only recommending Continental or Michelin.

This is exactly why im looking to change tyres, got rainsports on the front and they are shocking. It's like driving on jelly!

+1 you should try them on the rear god it's awful feels like the car will roll over.

Have a look at these Rainsport 3s, much better tread pattern now.

Sorry to h/j the thread.. I dont think I will cope with the vaguness that most of you are describing..
The kumho ku31 then?
I need to replace my front marshall koukouroukou lol tyres that are not that bad around town but there limit is in 3/10 in the rain.. and then is understeer to infinity.
I am not spending though 400 for normal road tyres for 16 inch.

What size you running, 195/45/16?

 

[George Welsh]

Yes and for road use I will try to stick on 16 inch

Plenty of choice, upper budget around £70-80 a tyre you have Pirelli Pzero nero which are my personal favourites, but theres also Michelin ps3s, Conti sport contact 3s, Dunlops, Bridgestones and then mid range approx £50-60 a tyre you have Uniroyal rain sport 2s and the new rainsport 3s, Falkens, Kumhos etc.

For the top of the range my choice would be Pirelli Pzeros and out the mid range choice either the Kumho KU31s or the new Rainsport 3.

 

[peanuthead]

Had some conti contact 3 on my old wheels, thought they were brilliant. Serves me right for being a cheap skate, should have spent that little bit more first time round

Those bridgestone tyres don't look too bad Ben, good price as well.

What I didn t like in the p zero was a funny feeling around th centre and in the first degrees of steering input. I felt the same in a fiesta st and in a cupra back in Greece. This might have been due to road temperature or due to the zero quality in our road network. I know that they have bags of grip but..
I just want something linear to give me feedback of the mechanical grip if that makes sense.
Anyway due to budget constraints I might opt for the ku31( i ll also have a look on tne rainsport 3) or since I want first to freshen up all bushes, dampers etc just buy yoko winters untill spring.
We ll see lol
I keep dreaming though the clio on rx9 with extra grooves lol
