Hi all, I know we have discussed many different types/sets of tyres here, but can anyone recommend good tyres for 19 inch wheels (19x7.5) and which ones will look good on the car 215, 225, etc? And also how much they will cost, performance, experience with it, etc.
Thanks all!

Yea, I heard Kumhos are good! Where can you get the Kumhos for that price and how wide are the tyres?

Continental is a good name. I'd warn that you should take the time to inspect the tyres before buying. There is always a chance that they are old-old stock. With the amount of km's your car does, I'd suggest not getting anything more than a year old - you really shouldn't have tyres more than 5 years old on your car. Check the date code on the sidewall of the actual tyres that you are buying.

I have a set of nangkangs for sale, they have the opposite of performance but they are cheap. You can have all 4 with 90-95% tread for $350.
