There's always the Pirellis, Vredestines, or Toyos. What size do you need?

What size did you need?

When I bought mine in 195/60R15 I was told there were nine left in the country and they weren't importing any more in that size.

Excellent tyres btw.

There was a Wheels tyre test last year that looked at small car tyres and an Astra was the test car - winner in the 195/60R15 size was the BF Goodrich G-Force, and in the 205/50R16 size it was the Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3. It's the April 04 issue if you want to read it for yourself.

so what size rims do you have? standard or custom?

205/50x16 is a common size for the Precedas. Got them on my SRI. Great tyre
