there is a huge thread about tyres in the technical section of the forums.

if i were you, I would look at different profile sizes in your tyres.
You would assume wall flex on a tyre would effect your drive.

They will make a noticeable difference in handling
Try fork out a little bit extra and pick up a set of 195s
I think you'll notice a slight difference in the way it grips the road in my opinion :thumbsup:

185/70 and 175/70, though the same number is actually a diffrent profile.

the profile is some percentage or sumtin of the width.
also, maybe your should get some 15-16inch wheels as then you have a larger choice of quality tyres to get
