Tyre Recommendations on 14" 185/60's Thu, 03 February 2005 03:43 Go to next message
Hi all,

Im looking for a Tyre Recommendations from everyone for my 14" superlight wheels to go on my AE92 Levin.
195/60/14 are on them now just to pass the RWC about a month ago, but now im looking to buy a good proper set for daily driving & good performance handels.

The tyres look too bulged out currently, so im going for 185/60/14 (rare to get lower profile for 14" rims).

Im thinking the Yokohama C Drive for $125 each.

Anyone got any other suggestions?

Cheers

i am in the same boat as NERD though i am also looking at semi slicks

i like the falken azenis but they dont seem to do this size any more

the yokohama a032r is very nice but a bit expensive

i am now considering goodyear F1 and the yokohama a008 for street use and a032r on another set of rims for hillclimbs etc

Yeh Aust162,

The Yokohama C drives are this years versions of the Yokohama a539's, just under a different name. The Yokohama a539's, did win tyre of the year last year too Cool

I think im going with the Yokohama C Drive. I'll probably check the price of the Bridgestone Potenza's and weigh up the option.

Tough one though Sad

i used to have hancook silica 195/14/60, and these tryes were really good in the wet and dry. plus they lasted me about 30,000kms and onlycost just over 100 each.
