I am considering ordering new rubber for my Ibiza FR soon. I dont want to change the alloys as I am a cheap skate.
I wanted to go for Goodyear F1s or whatever you guys would recommend for dry weather grip.
The current rubber is 205/45
I was looking at going for 205/50 with the better quality tire as hopefully the sidewalls will be firm enough that I wont notice a difference in cornering, but it might improve how it absorbs rough surfaces as well as increase max speed by 5-10mph and correct the 5% speedo inaccuracy.
Just to confirm I assume there is no chance of safely fitting 215s etc without changing alloys.
So 2 questions....
1) Goodyear F1s or is there another make I should look at?
2) What do you think to going to 205/50 over 205/45?
