With the tyre situation so desperate, one of the options is to move away from 195 55.

185 60 seems too high - looks very balloon-like.

Seriously considering 185 55 - it seems there are some nice Toyos in this size, Dunlops too.

Anyone got any experience/comments?

Hey mate,

I've just bought 2 x Toyo TR-1's from Camskill.
They're on a special atm I think still at £29 each.

Great tyres from my experience, they are on the front of my 5.
Seems to handle very well. Good price aswell aye?

They are 195/50/R15's tho?

If you look on camskill they do a 195/45/13, continental I think, I am seriously cosidering these, I had them before years ago & loved them... make the car a bit low if it's dropped though so be aware.
