Default Time for tyres

Hi

Its tyre buying time im thinking bout a set of goodyear eagle F1's as I can get them at a good price ???

Im not sure what profile to get I currently have p6000's with 45 profile Im considering going for a 50 profile to soften ride and help my 17's fill my bugeye arches better I plan to fit ebach springs at a later date. Anyone running 50's at the mo?? or am I being daft and will they just look pants and affect the handling

Opinions please !

Yes the car will look pants and the handling will suffer, by upping the profile you will be adding additional "give" in the handling dept. If you don't like the ride, why are you changing to Eibach springs? Although I find them excellent , they offer a slightly firmer ride than the standard springs. Goodyear F1 tyres are excellent, be that the Assymetrics or the older GSD3.

Go with the Asymetrics. You will not regret it!

After doing a loada research etc. on here opted for Vreddy Sessantas.

Only recently, but initial impressions are good, stiff sidewalls (xtra load) run at 38psi,
