I'll try and find you a link I was thinking of some GSD3's but was told otherwise by a mate who has an EVo and changes his tyres every few months

Same has been said on Cliosport too by some track enthusiasts just saying they dont wear as well etc.

Greg there the puppies think they will look grea on Gav's car

Get uniroyal rainsports 195 45 r 15 they r stunning in the wet and cheap too,my old sport wheels and tyres 185/55 14 were shit with michelin tyres and used to kick back end out all the time the 195 45 15 rainsports are a big improvement and dont seem to affect the acceleration!

I had GSD3 195/45/16s on my corsa, they lasted about 3000 miles. The grip was excellent in the dry but not so great in the wet. The car was running -60mm springs and a good 2 degrees of negative camber at the front.

Then Astra GSI fanblade style wheels will look spot on IMO

195/45/15 Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD2

GSD 3's have been getting bad press.



Never liked those wheels myself

Thinking tigra or ceresso's (sp) at the moment as they are dirt cheap and I can then spend the money on tyres
