Tyres for VTR alloys

[TU-Tuning]

Think this is the right section. Need to replace all my tyes on the VTR rims, which are 185/55/R14's. Can anyone reccomend me some rubber? Ive had Firestone Firehawk 700s on em upto now, they handled very well in the dry but when the rain came down they were a bit shite.


I want good tyres but i dont want to be paying stupid amounts per tyre, eg not shitty Nankangs but not Continentals either


Cheers

[Baz]

toyos are good.

i liked my pirelli p6000s on my 8v rimmage

Sounds good to me. How long did they actually take to come? Says a week but cars at the MOT centre impounded right now so need them to come asap.



It failed on emmisions and on a dodgily fitted driveshaft which takes the piss i only got it done last weekend.

Theyre a bit more expensive, bout 15 quid a corner. Reckon its worth the extra 60 quid?

I get my tyres from them too Bullit. IIRC, I paid £176 for 4 T1-R tyres. Including VAT and delivery. I think that's exceptional as they last ages under normal driving conditions.

[bullit]

i know, you told me ;)

[Toad]

I did? lol, OK.

[bullit]

yeah lol. check your rep

There's some called "parada's" that alot of people recomend. Quite cheap aswell iirc. I think thats what they are called anyway.
