Just thought I would say is there any point in getting decent tyres on the standard 14" alloys?
I've had quote that for Pirelli (185 60 R14) £52!
Thats with fitting & Balancing etc etc
well?

KU31s are brilliant tyres though, thats what i like to wrap around superlites 
Avon are good, toyo are good in the wet but dont last very long.
Tyres matter, dont buy crappy ones unless you expect to drive like a granny
