Hi,

Ive currently got Cav slabs with 195/45/15 on but as they are quite expensive can I go for anything else that would be better/cheaper ??

The car is lowered but buy how much im unsure and the arches are rolled if that makes a difference.

Thanks in advance

195/50 15 tyres are usually cheaper than 45's, and they look fine. They clear std arches (on vaux wheels)..... so you will have plenty of room.

185/55's are narrower than the 195/50's but I think they are a tad more expensive.

Try and find some new/ nearly new ones on ebay if you want to go down the budget route.

I bought a 225/45 x 17 Michelin tyre which was brand new off ebay with a Mercedes rim. With postage it was about £40 - I sold the rim for a tenner so got a brand new Michelin 17" tyre which should have cost about £130 for £30 :thumb: :thumb:

Blackcirlces can give you a fully fitted price (unlike places like camskill) and in that price they include old tyre disposal, balancing etc (unlike places like mytyres).

You also get a discount with them for being a club member - see the club discount section for details.
