Right then my 2000 1.2 Clio is in need of new tyres. I know its not exactly quick (I'm 18 its all I can insure atm lol) but I do enjoy some fun in the corners. At the moment all I seem to get is understeer if I breathe on the throttle lol.

I was considering getting some wheels (15's, any bigger looks silly on a clio imo) so then I have much more choice of rubber (195/55-15 could get me some tyres which I know are great lol) but as it is I'm just about to buy another bike for the TT in june so need to save the money I was gonna spend on the wheels lol.

So, what would you say is the best choice for my car that will give me good wet and dry grip? Not too worried about milage or price but don't want cut slicks haha.

I need 165/65-14 all round.

Thanks in advance, Carl

Toyo's are good allround I've found. Got them on my 182 with no issues, had them on my old M5 and very good, will get them fitted to the SC Ro when the rears where out to.

Does the 182 take 205's? I'm pretty sure it does but cant remember lol. When I looked you could get some nice toyo's in 205'5 or 195's but for the 165's there not very good lol.

Thanks
