Tyre Size for 16" Wheel?
As I'm in the process of deciding upon which tyres to go for. I've been offered 205/55/16 tyres, which are cheaper and, I've been told (by those selling the tyres!) will make no difference really to the car. Could anybody give me some sound advise on this please, I'm a little sceptical and would have thought the 205/50/15 would be better. Any comments please?

I use 205/50/16 on my 16" rims, that was the size of the O/E tyres on them when I got the car. Not sure what the higher profile will do, what I do know is that the 205/50/16's are a lot better (better turn in) than the 205/55/15's you get on older UK Turbos
