Just wondering what decent tyres are available in the standard cyclone size 15/195/55?
Are they 195 or 185 standard?
Can you get Michelin PS3 in this size or would it be a case of going down to a 50 profile to get anything decent?

195 55 15 is the o.e size for a gti6 or rallye.

PS3 only come in a 195 50 afaik.

I think AD08's come in a 55.

As welshpug said, PS3's are a 50 profile only but that's fine nothing wrong with a 50. They can also be had for peanuts.

Pirelli P6000. A brand name you can trust.

Trust to make the rear end overtake the front.

I'm running Dunlop Sport BluResponse's on my 6, and have done for the past 4,000 miles. Top performers, and reasonably priced in the OE size too (195-55-15).

No contest mate nothing worth having in 55 profile and costs a bomb more than a 50 profile. I've always kept the standard 55 profile on diesels I've run but on a performance car I wouldn't have anything other than 50 profile PS3's or PE2's.
