Tyre Choice?

[Flamered12]

I need 4 new tyres soon, probably next couple of weeks, can anyone suggest which tyres to go for (185/55/R15 Required) I've been looking on Mytyres.net, from the discounts page, prices seem pretty good...

Obviously they need to be pretty good in the snow for the upcoming weather, but down in Kent it never lasts for long so then I want ones that are good for wet/dry wityhout having to buy 2 sets.

Any help would be great

Thanks,

Richard

If you can cope with going a bit slower in the snow in exchange for going much faster in the wet :evil: then go for Goodyear Eagle F1 gsd2's They're still great in the dry as well so they'd be my recommendation!

Or get 195/50/15 which fit and are cheaper and then get Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3s!

so 195/50/15 will fit my wheels that currently have 185/55/15's on? standard dynamique rim btw

Amen to that.

Yes - if you go up a width (185 to 195) you generally go down a profile (55 to 50)

sounds wonderful! shal do some more research then get spending some pennies!

Thanks all!

Mine are dynamique rims and they fit well and protect the rim well too.

Yep, go for 195/50s and Goodyear GSD3's.

I still like the standard contis.
I run them on 195/50/15 the only problem is they ahve wron the rear arches away slightly but that might be down to track work.
