In general how much are tyres in the size 195/45/R15?

Ranging from budget upwards?

 

[Lee]

I paid £30 each for mine, and they're Fortuna budget tyres.

 

[Steve]

Are budget tyres ok on a corsa ie do they give good enough grip?

 

[Lee]

In the dry yes, in the wet, not really.
It all depends on your driving style etc.
If you take it steady and don't hammer it you will be fine, if you start driving around like your having a race, you'll encounter problems.

 

[Steve]

yea well it'll be my girlfriend thats doing the driving once she's past her test so she'll be taking it easy - I hope lol

 

[Lee]

She should be fine then.

I got hold of a set of Avon CR's for £35 each, they are pretty good although slightly dissapointing in the wet

I got a set of Toyo Proxes T1-S for £40 each, and getting fitted on friday. They are a softer compound, but apparently its well worth the lower edurance for the ride and grip.

Also look on ebay.

I got a set of 4 205/40/17's for £150 and Lee got a pair of 215/35/19's for £120

Start at £27 on ebay: http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/sea...=compare&copagenum=1&coentrypage=search&fgtp=

As mentioned above, Ebay is a good bet, you can get branded tyres really cheaply. Always better to spend that little extra IMHO, same as anything...you get what you pay for.

 

[Steve]

Been looking at tyres on ebay because wanna replace current one's to a lower profile and found these - do you reckon they'll be ok for just your everyday driving?
