Hi All

On the shortlist =

GR80s

Saw some really good reviews for both, GR 80 is a fav in Singapore

Thought of going for T1R..they look great & are reviewed pretty well!!

but used the calculator & saw that the diameter for 185/55/15 is 5.39% & 195/55/15 is 4.18%

They warn that 3%(Warning! When changing tire sizes, we recommend staying within 3% of the diameter of the original tire.  Any more than this and you face the risk of brake failure.)

Anyone has used a wider & lower tyre with the stock rims??!! anyone with expert advise...or should i stick to GR80s they have multiple sizes

I can get the T1Rs at approx $500 for 4, & GR80 around $400 mark

Pls advise Thanks
