Hi, I have to finally change tyres on my Fairmont GT. Have 235/ 60/ 14 at present with original rims/ chrome caps. It seems the original rims are too narrow for 235 width. One supplier has suggested a 14" mag rim on a 205/ 70 tyre (foreign brand). very reluctant to change original chrome caps for mag rim.
What can any of you suggest as a good performance tyre that is also comfortable for regular driving?
thanks
Ahmed

Re: Need advice for GT tyres/ rims
personally i'd slap a set of 14" torq trust D wheels on ... somehow a GT dont look halaal with anything bigger . 15 "is pushing it . Fairlane on the other hand look drop dead gorgeous with 17 "ers on
All boils down to personal taste i guess
