Tyre / wheel choice

[ConnorCup]

Hi chaps,
Just bought myself a 172 cup on the standard turinis. Tried searching but just thought i'd ask as you lot know which works best on these clios.

It has yoko advans on the rear, and a continental and a michelin thing on the front.
Now i want the turinis as my track wheels so i intend on getting another pair of advans from the front, unless i find something else.
Now i ask, i have some compomotive mo5's 15x6.5s freshly refurbed in suitable fitment in my loft, would these be too small for a clio, or am i better off selling them and getting something better? And also as there 15"s i wanted to run 195/50 toyo t1rs on those as i really like them as road tyres (in the dry lol ) Any other suggestions for 15" good all-round road tyres that are reasonably priced would be muchly appreciated.

Taa
Connor

Michelin PS3's are the best all round tyre for the clios

i've got the toyo proxes t1r on mine they seem fine to me.

 

[plymcl172]

Toyo are a cracking tyre at a good price. I use proxes 4 great tyre

 

[ConnorCup]

I'm going to get some more advans for my turinis, and t1r's for my comps, so then i have a road and track set

 

[JackJack]

You would be better off using the 15s for track and turinis for road.

 

[ConnorCup]

^ yea i was thinking that, but the turinis need refurbing, and already have 2 good advans. Meh i'll see

 

[plymcl172]

Yeah 16's/17's for road

15's for track

T1Rs are toss.

T1Rs are toss.

+1 . I thought they were a sh!te tyre in the wet . Personally i'd go for Uniroyal Rainsports 2's . They stick to the road in wet and dry weather . Bearing we live in a wet climate and if this year is anything to go by , it's getting wetter .The Rainsports for 15's are only cheap , for example £44 plus delivery a corner on www.mytyres.co.uk

Even cheaper on camskill.

There's a good "are 17s too big/look silly on a 182" thread ATM...

I don't do angry any more, Mrs Git fed up with me ripping my clothes and leaving green stains.

Legend, i shall be going for those instead, as yes the t1r's are absolute toss in the damp let alone the wet, but i thought the RainSports were mega dollar.


And as for the snide comments about me asking whether there too big or what-not. I was simply asking for peoples opinions on what size wheels and tyres they prefer to run for track and road, thankyou-please
