well iv tried too many tires.lol

yoky a539 seem to work well on standard 19, but seem a bit loose in teh wet if lowered

toyo proxies i seemed to scuff off quite quickly, work relay well in the wet when new, and slowly deterioate as the tread goes down, and at about half tread there not amazing in the wet

toyo r888's....amazing, i stole them off my r5 turbo just fro a giggle.lol, amazing

uniroyal rainsport..... my choice, seem to work excellent in the wet, generally when giving it sum in the wet there loose rather than skittery

dry, absolutly fine,

eczsta's.....seem good alround, but again like the proxies wear down quite quickly, and im afraid thats all iv tried,

NOTE al the tyres were 195/50/15....hate 45 profile

hope this helps
