Sportivo tyres-what prices have ppl been quoted

[lazyboy]

hi guys,

i just need some help getting some tyres for my sportivo, i heard they where very expensive and just wondering where can i get some cheap or decent price one.

thanks

the 195/55-16 is a rare size to find only the bridgestone turanza and a few others. for more choices you will need to change the size to 205/50-16. for something from taiwan look at $100 per 16" tyre.

[kick_ass]

To replace it with what is on it you are up for around $220/ tyre.

I had to replace a couple a few months ago, and in the 195/55-16 size there is only a choice of 5 to be had in Aus. -and really only 4 as one of these only had a H? (220Kph) rating - and it was one of the dearer ones.

Price ranges I got were $220-360 per!

A ring around different tyre places only saw a few dollars difference between them.

So, just find your favourite/most convenient tyre place and take a large amount of $

I got quoted $205 per tyre recently by Jax.

Bridgestone charged me $198 per tyre just last week. I think he said the RRP was $226 or something???

[Phat]

i paid 234 a bridgestone tyre!! kinda didnt have a choice since i needed it 2 get my blueslip....

[ZEEROLLA]

205/50R16 Potenza GIIIs are only between $180-$205 per tyre.. i think they are a tad better than the Turanzas

[srr]

I m thinking of getting toyo proxes t1-R..

they have 195/55 for about $200 per tyre...

anyone has any comments ?

whats wrong with changeing the tyre size to make it cheaper ? seems like the more reasonable approach to payin 200 a corner

[xGSiR]

What the?! $200 a tyre for the stock sportivo rims? I just find that too expensive. Maybe $150 is reasonable.

Can't we just put on 205/55R16 on the stock rims right?
