What size are stock MY00 rims? I have 4x 15" tyres sitting at home that are Brand New. If they are the size you need PM me.

Bigger tyres = bigger surface area in contact with road = more grip = better handling

Best Bet Is Do A Search And See What Tyre Suits You Mate.

Not always true... bigger, flatter surface in wet weather = easier to aquaplane. The larger surface sort of float's on the water instead of cutting thru and dispersing the water, unless of course you get a tyre with a decent tread thats both quiet and good at dispersing water.

ppl on this forum seem to be keen on the Bridgestone s03's... I don't know much about tyres, as my nankangs have done 25000km's and still have 70% tread on them. :D

Something that when my wife takes the car she doesn't kill herself in it...mind you she already managed a few drifters on a roundabout on dry surface. Should have bought a volvo :)
