Tyre choice
 

On my jdm widetrack it has been fitted with uk sized 225/45 17 re070 tyres, now I really like the tyres but finally I have reached a stage were all 4 need replacing shortly, is there any advantage in going to correct 235/45 17 and if so as re070 are not generally available what's a good alternative. A other option is just stick with re070 in 225 size. Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

If you're used to the re070s then the ad08s is a good shout

I've got vredestien ultrac sessantas fitted and they are the best tyre I have ever used, I always recommend them and people that have bought them have always said how impressed they are with them.

One tyre I would consider is Goodyear F1 asym, not sure what performance difference there is between version 2 and 3 though

I've had both and loved the Vredstein, and currently hate the Goodyears.

Thanks, would the 235 vredstein be a better choice than the re070 in 225, just have never had any other tyres on my car.

I don't have a Subaru anymore, but on my current car Michelin pilot super sport are excellent

235/45/17 Michelin are available at COTCO.
