[LURCHIO_NOVA]

has anyone got a sugestion for what typre i should go for on my nova! im after a 195/45/15 but i was just wondering what brand of tyre is a good all rounder as when i had the yoko a539's on the other nova it scared the shit out of me goin round and round in the wet on a corner :o no the best way to exit an island :D

oh also do u have a price and where i can get them (i mean a website if they are cheeper on-line)

cheers guys

try toyo proxes, thats what i use on my astra GTE LET...go onto the www.mytyres.co.uk webby, they are the cheapest that ive found, and they deliver free within 4 days!!

topgear.co.uk arent too bad.

also ive found mytyres to not be "the best" when you factor in tyre fitting.....

event mobile tyres are top notch for prices etc too. just search google for them.

www.camskill.co.uk are pretty good as well, but as stu said check local places too.

I swear by my Eagle F1's, bit expensive but excellent grip in both wet and dry, and still plenty of grip even after 13k

I dunno if this helps, but I did the whole tyres thing a little while back and after I got everyone opion on each tyre I made this little chart. It may help it may not.
