That's great! Fit them onto your car and post the pics soon!

I have bought Punto's OE alloy from a friend, who bought a new OZ 16" alloy wheel.

My current steel rim is 14" with 175/70. I will be upgrading to 195/60 R15 for all 2 wheels.
Now what should i do for spare tyre. I will keep the steel rim, is it ok to put 185/70 on spare tyre?

That's great! Fit them onto your car and post the pics soon!

Yes, the tyre search will begin from next week. Planning to put CPC2.

Sell off the old tyre and put 195/60 for spare tyre too.


I don think its good driving with a different tyre profile. But if you are keen doing so , i think 185/65 will be better.

But that means I have to buy new 15" steel rim as well.
I will be using spare only in case of puncher, so planning to use 14" steel rim. I will sell all 5 tyres though.

Planning to put Yokohama C-Drive tyre. Any experience, please share.
I was keen on Conti CPC2, but its not available easily.

why don't you try Hankook

 

[cooldhaya]

Hey RSM i think C-drives are wet specific tyres , so they maybe a bit noisy! Why not try S-drives?


Conti is readily available in Chennai.

 

[RSM]

S-Drive is sport tyre and I am looking for more of comfort.

 

[cooldhaya]

Then why not Michelin Xm1+? And what about A-drives then?

 

[RSM]

A-Drive is basic tyre and no comfort. C-Drive has better reviews than A-drive.
Michelin Primary LC was one of the choice, but the price is 5300.
XM1+ doesn't come in 195/60 size.

 

[RSM]

I have put the OE alloy I bought with Yokohama C-Drive.
Conti CPC2 was my first choice but stock is problem in Bangalore.

For spare tyre I have put 185/70-R14 (apollo accelere) - Like polo.

C-Drive cost - 4300 per tyre
15K run Bridgestone exchange - 1200 per tyre.

Congrats RSM! Now waiting for the pictures of your car.


And hey rates are slightly higher in Bangalore i guess. Here C-drive costs under 4k!
