Anyone running these on a 9N? I have 205/40x17s and I think I'd get on better with 195/40s. 185/35 look ace but are out of the question.
Anyone? Pics would be good too...

Didnt realise you could get 195/40/17s. i searched quite a few places when i looking for new tyres. Can get them for 16s, but didnt think you could for 17s.

Try http://www.camskill.co.uk.
The Toyos are good (though I"ve only tried T1rs not the PX4s). Hankooks get good reviews too (50 quid a corner too!).
The P Zero Neros are very good tyres with a silly price tag (over 100 quid).
No pictures on 9Ns folks? I don't want to have to run 185/35s as that would mean air is needed (ie.

Hankooks are a good tyres, but dont stretch too good imo. I got falkens after the hankoks and the falkens look like a totally different profile.

I slipped and meant the Kumho Ecsta actually. Funnily enough I've just got some Yokohama Parada Spec 2s. They're nice enough tyres but the profile is very square compared with the Toyo T1rs I had on my 16s.
Come the spring I'll probs go with some more Toyos. I prefer the softer compound they're made of too.
