    195/45's all round mate, cant go wrong because when you need to replace them they are easy to come by
    i waited 4 months foor my 165/50r15's yeah they arecool..... but im gonna be stuffed when i need to replace them!

    was looking for 195/40's australia wide and didnt have any luck
    if an australian deliverd car had them on as factory, we have the tyre here, if not... they will not be avalable

    No traction when launching in the dry (wheelspin the whole way through 1st, 2nd and part of 3rd) and in the wet I pretty much didn't take the car out because it was too dangerous. I couldn't even turn slowly in the wet without the front end sliding around everywhere. Going around roundabouts, all fours would let go....

    Wow, I've only heard good things about the T1R? Lots of dubbers choose the T1R for the way the sidewalls stretch though... I suppose they were evaluating the tyre based on the looks!

    Alex has Nankang NSIIs over his BBS wheels. Very cheap performance tyre. I had them before on the BBS I sold to you. A little noisier than I liked.
