Be careful of low speed ratings, as an xe nova should do 145 in theory!

Most bellsniffs dont think of this if theres a "Valver" being put in, not saying your one of them, or even saying you have an xe, but its something you have to watch being an internet site and all!

If im being honest, I think its a factor of 1.5

So in theory a 150mph tyre, will go boom around 225lol

Lets not try it hey:wtf:

S-drives are **** to be honest, steer clear. Get some bigger wheels and fit Goodyear GSD-3s

I bought 185/60/14's Toyo Proxes CF1 for the SR, similar pattern to the Yoko C drives, @£10 a tyre cheaper, and I'm pleased with them, mind good weather use!

I'd consider the Kumho KH15 or KH17 at that kind of price...
