what tires are a good size to put on some 7.5j 16" bbs rs's? im ordering some rubber today and im not sure what to go for.... i dont want mad stretch as the traction is aweful but i dont want ballons either!!

p.s anyone wanna buy my porsche cup twist reps?

Toyo proxes t1r or Goodyear eagle f1 gsd3

Best size would be 195/40/R16's mate

Yh that's what I got put on, 195 40's falkens

Got a great deal

T1-R mate, epic tyre.... Toyo ftw

I'm thinking I investing in some decent tyres this year I've had kuhmos on for a year and a bit dissapointes on how they've lasted only around 12k toyos are liking promising.

I'm also after some new tyres for my 16'' bbs, The last tyres I bought were Maxxis, not that great.

I'm liking Trotta's suggestion of Toyo Proxes TR1, £67 per tyre at Camskill which is good, never had toyo's, but I trust your review

Try black circles there prices are pretty good.!

Was put a good word in for Continental Sport Contact 2's too,both myself and Alex Perkins (Now Greg's car) have used them and been imprressed.Ive always found Toyo Prox's to wear pretty fast due to the soft compound.

I've just put some Conti Sport Contact 2's on, awesome tyre, tranformed the car in comparison with my old Kumho Ecsta's

And Blackcircles.com is where I got 'em

I had 195/40/16 Contis on my GTI, awesome tyres can't recommend them enough

Another vote for t1-R stretch nicely as well

I'd go for toyo's.

Toyo T1R's are very good and I used them on my GTI but they dont tend to last very long unfortunately

Good budget performance Tyre but in terms of value for money it would be better spending an extra £7-8 each and getting Yokohoma S Drives, they perform better in the wet too

Not knocking Toyo's but there are better tyres out there for the same money, even Falkens are very good for the price.
