Tyres for Quantum Xtreme

[sailingsmith]

Hi all,

I'm sure this has been asked loads and I've looked through a lot of posts but can't quite find what I'm looking for so decided to ask the experts

I've recently purchased a Quantum Xtreme and will soon need some new tyres, it will mainly be road use, but plan to do a couple of track days as well. The tyre size is 195/50/15. I will pretty much only use the car in the dry, but don't want it to be lethal in the wet if I get caught out by the UK weather or if a track day falls on a wet day.

Price wise, I'm happy to look at all options and weigh up the differences.

Thanks,

Mark

Any premium tyre in the size you quote will do the job alot depends on pocket depth

So there is nothing that works better for a light weight car over another? I got the impression that due to the light weight there were options that were better suited than others..... I could be wrong.

Toyo R1R would be a good choice.

your quantum may not be as light as you think especialy with a Pinto in it

It's running a 2.0 duratec, the really heavy part is the driver at 21+ stone

R1R certainly get some good reviews.

Anything else people have had good experiences with?
