Hi all just asking if anybody has a set of the saturn wheels for sale.My only problem is that i have put a lot of effort in to my 15 inch wheels polishing rims.But the tyres are well old but have good tread. Not sure which way to go with this.If i stick with the 15 inch wheels can any one reccomend a reasonable tyre choice.Car is off the road for winter.Thank all Mike 350is2

Yeah I have a set fs.

See here for a piccie:



I am now on OZ's so the Cerbie ones can go.

They have had the holes machined for 112mm pcd.

They are a little bit kerbed here and there but I used them for 2nd best, they clean up reasonably well. PM me for more details.

Toyo T1-R. If they are the 205/50/15 option you can get them below £80 each.

You will end up shortening your gearing dramatically though. The difference between a 50 profile tyre and a 60 (which is what should be fitted) is quite marked.
I really wish Toyo did the T1-R in a 60 profile!

When I get my tiv on the road, I'm going for Dunlop SP Sport 01's. They're an excellent performing tyre available in the correct size and profile (205/60/15) and are V rated - they're also available at a reasonable price.

Sorry, didn't know what the profile was so took a guess, thought it may have been the same profile as the SE's!! Lots of choices all around the £90 mark, cheaper if you want 'less well known' brands. Look on Event Tyres, lots of options there and they will come to you to fit them as well.

They were on the list too! I believe Falken are Japanese Dunlop? If I have any problems getting hold of the SP Sport Dunlops, I'll get a set of these.

Yeah Dunlop and Falken are related, Falkens have a good price and they're very good tires. As with all sporty tires don't expect miracles in the wet (get Uniroyal Rainsports if thats your thing) but in the dry they are grippy as can be, and pretty cheap!
