Tyre Advice

[ClioCrew]

Got some 15" standard Clio alloys and the time has come to replace the tyres. There the dynamique alloys off a ph2.

Anyways just wondering if you can only have a set width on these alloys or can you pick and choose. May seem a stupid question but I'm not too sure so any advice is appreciated

Probably going to get some 195/50 if they fit. Think I've got 185/60 at the moment.

195s should fit without any issues.

cheers for that! reckon 50% will look ok? or should i go down to 45?

anybody got these alloys? and what tyres are using on them?

 

[SC03OTT]

If it was me, I'd opt for 195/50. The standard size for the 15" wheel is 185/55 as far as I can remember. If you go for a 45 profile you might run the risk of them looking like rubber bands. But I don't know for certain, I can't say I've seen 195/45s on a 15" wheel.

I'm off to get 195/50's fitted to my car tommorrow morning, so will report back.

 

[ClioCrew]

ok thanks!

195/50/15 give good handling and comfy ride, also cheaper.

 

[Beef-Mc]

No issues, as said seems to handle bumps in the road better, comfier ride anyway. Oh and I save myself £60 so all in all, quite happy.

 

[ClioCrew]

nice one! which brand did you go with?

The Hankook V12's seem to get good reviews on here, £53 pound fitted. Havent driven long enough to get a proper feel for them though.
