Good tyres for 2.0L GTV

[Fetta GTV]

Hi All

After some advice on a good choice of tyres for the alfetta
I have 15x7 rims
Car is on club plates in NSW and does not do many miles so I'm thinking grip over high mileage
It does not see any track time
It has 195/60/15 all round at the moment, but they are now hard as a rock after being on the car for about 14years and only about 3000klms

Thanks
David

Eagle F1's are a quite grippy road tyre but are one of the noisier tyres...

meant to add, I would go for 205/55R15 or even 215/50R15 should be OK. Probably nothing much bigger than that though. That should stick like poo to a blanket.

Thanks
Had a look at the goodyear website, Doesn't look like they do them in those sizes

I've no experience with them, but I have also heard that Kuhmo KU-31's are OK. I have had Continental sport contact (or somethjing like that) as OEM on my '08 Fiesta Zetec that did a good job (195/45R16) but they have soft side walls - since replaced by Kuhmo KU-25's (205/40R16) - close but not as good in the dry but better in the wet than the Conti's... and a damn sight cheaper (by about $200 a corner)...

I have just purchased a set of Pirelli P7s for my Alfetta. Very quiet and lots of adhesion.

Found the Falken ZE 912 to be quite good

The Bridgestone Potenza RE001s are good value too, and come in suitable 15" sizes.

Mine were $155 fitted for 195.55.15

I've run a few sets of Yokohama C-Drives on both 75s and 156s and they are great. I've even done a few sprint meetings on them! They are not an out and out performance tyre, more  a good all rounder. Good in the wet, good wear rate and good handling for an early morning b-road shuffle.

Cheers,

Yokohama have a 195.55x15 that might do the trick. Have been very pleased with them on my Super.
Haev you checked with other owners with the same model to get their views?

You will probably finish up with information overload and nd up little the wsier

That is so true - every one has an opinion on tyres...

Thanks everyone

Went with the Falken ZE912s

195/60/15 on the front and 225/50/15 on the back

this could mess with the handling I guess, I'll see how it feels

Cheers
