I have intention to change to 16" rim after i collect my car. the best match is 195/55R16.
however, not many tyre has this profile.
from my research
for 16" tyre:-
V8 closest match is 205/55R16
GR80 closest match is 205/55R16
Kumho SPT has 195/55R16 (cost about 105 to 110 per 16" tyre only, been using it on my current ride)
are there any other tyre that u guys have been using that matches 195/55R16. I prefer comfort and quiet tyre. Of course wet and dry grip has to be of some standard also lar. so far the Kumho SPT serve me very well interms of grip, as for noise, as i have the HKS exhaust on my current ride, dun know about road noise. but i have some friends using it, most saying quite quiet.
want to open up for more options, else i would probably go back to kumho. Its ranked 7th tirerack under UHP tyres. cool stuff for the cost.

if you feel comfortable with kumho, by all means use it again.
i myself would recommend V8. running it on my girlfriend's car and it's pretty good.
good points being long lasting (a friend has ran 50k on it and still good to go), quiet, good wet grip, and nice sticky compound.
alternatively, up 2 sizes to 17" and a lot of options are open. =]

you sure or not??
haha.. remove the socket, then remove the rubber.
after that look carefully, there's a metal catch. press it downwards to release clip and you're good to go.
size is H4, t10 for pole.

up 2 size very taxing on FC and pickup... hehheee.
Kumho SPT is definitely very good interms of grip. my friend use it to run at sepang, also travel in NSH at 140 wet road (after raining). he is those type that push the car to the max alot, and give very good comments, thus i try this tyre when i change rim.
only problem is i dun know if this tyre is very quiet or not.... hahaa, cause my car now got simota carbon charger and HKS silent hi-power exhaust. also quiet is relative, have to compare 2 tyre personally to know.
guess i will only know if kumho SPT if quiet after i de-mod my current ride
