I'd like to run a favorite Cerbera tyre poll but I'm not sure which to list. Let me have a selection of options and I'll create the poll.

Continental Sport contact 2

Worth considering that certain manufacturers don't do tyres for all sizes.

I presume there are at least Six Cerbera, TVR reccomended sizes ?

Front 16"
Rear 16"
Front 17"
Rear 17"
Front 18"
Rear 18"

Which one do you want to do the poll for ? smile

Now I'm in trouble, I didn't realise there was a size/type choice. Maybe its best to hold the poll and just get a list of preferred make and model with the person adding size of they wish.

You would probably need a poll for each rim size...

The assumption must be that the tyre is available in your rim size (see also: does size affect handling).

But it would make sense to divide into best all-purpose/road tyre and best track(/dragstrip?) tyre. I would vote for PZero in the road category, they continue to amaze me in both wet and dry conditions smile

just fitted Falken FK452 16" £69.40 incl vat from www.camskill.co.uk was going to fit toyo but noticed they are only W speed rated which i thought was only good for 168mph, i am probably not going to go this fast but if the car is quoted as being capable of doing 175+mph would your insurance company start getting funny about claims if they checked your tyres if you had a crash?
