175/60-13 Thats the standard G40 tyre size. You can get a couple of makes including the Yoko A539 which I rate highly.

Yeah the're genuine G40 wheels, exactly the same as yours Dan.
175/60/13 it is then.
Mytyres.com are very good, I always bought my Toyo's from them, however me mate had some trouble when he ordered some Pirrelli's, but like I say, I've never had any trouble with em!

toyos seem to be very competitively priced on there for the quality of tyre!!
i was looking at dunlop, goodyear or hankook i think for my next tyres (remember i have 205/45/16 and may need 215/40/17 if i get alloys!!!!)

I ran the T1-S on my 200bhp import Integra, and they really do grip well under hard conering/set off. Especially in the wet.
For summer use, I'd go for Bridgestone Potenza's RE010's every time, I gaurantee you wil not find a better tyre for summer use. The tyre walls have no flex, and the car feels so stable at high speeds.
