Tires YOKOHAMA or Uniroyal

Yokohama are best high quality for the $. They cost less than Michelin, continental, etc but perform just as well, imo.

Yokohama is your best bang for the buck on the list. You are never going to be mad about going with the Michelins though.

True budget greats to me are definitely uniroyal rain sport 3. Not dead cheap but used em on the front of all my drift cars for grip and havent got a single complaint.

Wife's focus had the yokohoma blue earth gt, they provided good grip wet or dry....managed to outrun essex police with them on when it was stolen as well.

As far as tyres go, I swear by Yokohama’s.

They can be a little soft and they don’t last forever but I’ve never found the limit of grip and I have a highly modified car and drive like I stole it.

For a car like a C1 a decent mid-range tyre *that is A-rated for wet grip* would be fine.

Cheap versus branded - branded will be better everytime. In a small car with little brakes you want the best contact possible.

Envy FF-2 19"x8.5" wheels on Uniroyal Power Paw A/S 255/40R19. Has made for a great combo so far. Went with performance all seasons vs summer only due to variety of weather we can get and spring/fall trips to the mountains.

I went with the Yoko Geolanders. They are quieter than the Michelins that they replaced, but my gas mileage has dropped like 5%.

My dad complained about his Uniroyal tires ---way back in *1984*--- when he bought his Chevy Silverado.
