i dont know what tyres to get for my little fiesta. size is 185/60/r13. i need sticky in the dry and wet and a good wear rate. not too fussed about looks i.e. tyre pattern. also if you can recommend a better tyre than these but at around £30 a tyre please do

cheers

chose the yokes as i have used them and think they are very good. plus my mates use them on their mini's in 13" form and they are very grippy.

My yokes lated twice as long as my continentals on the cupra.

yes Yoko's are not the best in the wet

Personally prefer goodyear tyres as they perform best all round

falkens are good tyres for the money, and as said above, they have a thick layer of rubber on the outside to protect the rim.
