• As long as your not putting run flat tyres on or anything you'll find the car will be nicer to drive on the 205/55 R16. Also, tyres are not the place to save coin. Some michelin or continental in that size will be good.

    100%, 3 of the 4 summer tyres are basically new, they are however the cheapest of the cheap that were obviously thrown on to sell the car, so I’m putting a new set of Goodyear Efficientgrip performance 2s on. They’re about £60 a corner, fitted, but £110 for 225/55 r16 W(!). So seemed more than worth exploring other tyre sizes that would fit the rim.

  • Definitely worth swapping out. The should drive nicely on those Goodyears.

  • So why not just wear them out and worry about it later, or are they that bad at road holding?
