What tires do you run?

[20vWill]

A 185/60 R14 is about the optimum tyre size for the AE86.

Since the car is light, it doesn't need a bigger footprint and the 185 will get up to temperature and give lots of feedback to aid learning control on the limits.

I currently use 185/60 14 on 7" MA61 rims. That's an OK setup, though I'd like 14x8 with 185/60 for a little more stretch to stiffen up the feel.

I may be getting 15x8's with either 195/50 or 185/55 tyres. I also have some 13's kicking around with 165 or 175's for a bit of super-slippy fun...

I get my tyres for free from my used tyre skip sponsorship, so cannot be too choosey. I like to run something harder on the back (eg budget Kumho, Cooper Cobra, Firestone F-560), otherwise I am changing the rears every few days....
