beautifulbusso Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Righty guys, this is my 1st post in this section. In the rain this evening I was rather alarmed at being able to do 4 wheel drifts round corners and having next to !Removed! all grip. So my question is, what's the best tyres that these Impreza's like? Any cheap 16" alloys going for sale with tyres? The current alloys are 15" alloys with 195/60/15 tyres which are just shocking, hell my GTA could leave it for dead through the twisties and that's front wheel drive ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I'm not sure with the 16's if I'm honest mate but it does sound like very low budget tyres, I've been using falkens as my last set and found them great in all weather, if I had anything to pick at would be they do seem louder on the road surface.

Nevell Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 As above I have only good things to say about falkens (No there not sponsoring me gambit lol lol ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby Pete Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Ill chip in with top level go for Yokohama Parada, cheaper option Vredstein ultrac Sessanta. Great place for tyre info, it's all joe public reviews no trade so it's unbiased. You'd be surprised at just how bad some of the budget brands are in real life. http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoozyDave Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I'd recommend vredestein ultrac sessantas too. I had falkens on a previous car and they were great, but never had them on a scooby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautifulbusso Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Thanks for the reply guys, issue I'm finding is getting good quality tyres in 15" form. Best I've found are Continiental Premium Contact 5 or Vredestein Sportrac5 tyres for £55-£48 respectively. So I have looked around on here and eBay for 16" alloys with tyres for the same price as that'll help me in the future :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screw loose Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 HiI get all my tyres from http://www.camskill.co.uk/They are good prices. the last lot I got Michelin pilot sport 3 they were unbelievable.The only time they let go was when it was showing -4 and the roads were white. it was what they call a controlled drift. Exciting and a bit scary considering I was exceeding tge speed limit. Have a look at their website 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I will take a look I'm due another 4 tyres :( cheers :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
555wagon Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 on my last scoob I had perelli p zeros the best tyre ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevell Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I can recommend camskill ,and they sell scooby parts as well oem stuff mainly ,brake discs etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautifulbusso Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 I've always used camskill, I've got Pilot Super Sports on the GTA which are just outstanding, better than the Pilot Sport 3s that I had previously. I'd love to go up a size to 16" so I can get the PS3s tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
