You Should Go with Avon like i Saidd

They Fit them tyres Onto the Escort Cosworth Alloys.. As a First Replacement.
One cuz there the best people for the Odd Size tyre for the cos wheels
2... the Tread Pattern Is perfect on them
3. they ent that exspensive
4. there a Good all round tyre

I had them On my Saph Cos On the Bigger RS7's
They Were Wounderful on them

Iv got 2 Avons on the Back of my RS Turbo atm

id say conti sports aswell for two front it cost £169.

best bet is to go for mid range tyre not to cheap not to expensive.

but if it was me i was doing motorways miles id want the best tyre for the money .

also have you thought of going 195/45/16 or 195/50/16 price vary from tyre to tyre

yer 195s are a lot cheaper than 205s!

probs get toyo proxes in 195/45/16 they should fit hopefully. and give me good clearance for lowering

will have to get the alloy refurb done first though

I'm running Michellin F1 GSD's, gorgeous tread pattern, even better grip Dry or Wet! Hit me £140 piece a corner though (225/40/18).

Though if price is a bit of an issue, try Avons ZV-5, mid-ranged tyre, but good grip for the cost, and think ETB in Leamington has it on offer, 2 for £130/£140.

Quite a soft compound though so not expecting to get much out of them mileage wise, worth it for the grip though!
