Default Tires

RallySnake,

The tires are Bridgestone Eager 235/60R15 HR S340 RWT, NZ$213 each (USD$128.94) I would not go smaller than these, if I could get suitable 245/60/15's they would be on the car.

They are probably available ex Japan. I was looking at importing Goodyear Eagle GTII tires, which are only a few dollars more from the Goodyear/Dunlop people that bring race tires in, but as mentioned S speed rating, but they might be a better tire as far as grip etc goes, and I am not sure whether its worth taking notice of a speed rating, as I have never before in the past, I used to do approaching 160mph on skinny cross ply tires in speed events, in an old aussie Monaro.
