tyre choice

johhny5 - 30/5/10 at 02:56 PM

I have Xr3 cab alloys, the one's that are the lattice types on my car but i have a limited choice of tyres for decent makes.
I have 185/65 x14 on these alloys.
What size can i go to on these rims without changing the speed seetings or the car handling but getting a better tyre choice.
cheers

185/60R14 might give you a little more choice, but you are going to struggle to find any decent performance tyres for 14" rims to be honest.

I have 14" wheels on my Striker
and camskill do various tyres that will fit yours.

Track use and fast road: A048 and R888 available.
Mainly road use: I currently have Falken ZE912 which are cheap and actually seem good. Other than that they have Toyo CF1, Avon ZV3 and Firestone TZ200. I have no experience of the Avons and Firestones.
