Hi all so I'm putting the standard phase 2 wheels on my 5 and was thinking I'd like a lower profile tyre.
There doesn't seem much available.
What's your thoughts.

Very limited on tyre size for the standard 13's I think you can only really get uniroyal in 195/55/13 and they are getting harder to find. Don't think they do a lower profile in that size. Then you could go 185/60/13 or 185/70/13 :/ some tyres avalibe in these sizes or if a higher level of performance is needed toyo 888 or yoko A048/A032 or federal do a track day based tyre too all road legal but wear quickly and can be expensive :(

Ive seen lower profile 13's fitted in the past and they look pants unless the car is slammed to the weeds, stick some quality semi slicks on

Yes they are available but at around £70-80 a tyre not worth it IMO as toyo 888 are the same kind of money ;)
