The tyre sizes you'll need are 195/45/15. Prices depend on what you're after!

I'm gonna be in the market for a pair of rear tyres in the non-too-distant, certainly before winter! I think Josh suggested Toyo T1S Proxes, so I'll be having a look for prices in the local area. Otherwise my rents got a set of Goodyears from Hi-Q for a very reasonable price (they get Council discount if they go to the aforementioned Hi-Q garage!), so might look into those as an alternative...

BTW theres a tyre choice thread here. Enjoy!
