Tyres

[al 350i]

So its time to buy some new black round things, got car booked in for geo just need to choice which ones. its an early mk1 so want to try and help eliminate some bump steer, maybe improve the ride, plenty of grip as she's going out to the Nurburgring end of month, wear well and not that i want much ....good price too. so far i'm thinking:

Falken ZE914 - ran them before on Chim and very impressed
Avon ZZ5 - write ups seem to be good
Toyo PX T1 - Toyo seem to be prefered choice for TVR's


But i'm open to suggestion but rather asymmetrical to stop tramlinning???

I put a set of Vredestein Sessanta on the rear after a few recommendations on here. So far so good!

i am tempted on the Vredestein .......do i go for the newer Vorti's though. are you running them allround, does the front tramline?

[Cockey]

No, only rear. Should really change my fronts because they're getting on a bit. 7 years old or so going by the date marker.

I've got Sessantas on mine. From reading a few reviews, the Vorti doesn't seem as good but no first hand experience.

Tyres don't affect bump steer.

have you got the Sessantas all round? from what i understand bump steer is linked to height of rack but didn't know weather tyre choice and size might help.

as for size my thoughts were 235/40/18 front and 245/40/18 rear currently its got 235/40/18 all round.
