Hi,
What tires are best for 19" wheels?
I have ordered a set of 128's and is afraid it's gonna be too much noise and bumpy.
What tires is most "comfortable"?
Thanks
Claus

Hi Claus!
Did you finally find a dealer for the 128:s (with a good price)?
My Europen tip for good priced tires is: http://shop.autothek-hdl.de/

I'm using Bridgestone Potenza S-03. They're good tires.... Pirelli neros are good too.. But they have really bad tread wear..

I'd go for continentals. They are real quiet and comfortable. Dry grip is good, wet not so. Gotta watch out during corners when raining.

Hi I've been following this post. Are the tyres you guys are referring to run flats, or just the standard variety. If not run flats, why not ? and will this not affect your warranties if the original tyres were run flats.
Thanks.
Go easy on me - I'm a newbie......hoping to take delivery later this month!!

Thanks for all the information!
The reason I was asking about Michelins is that those tyres are included in the price with the wheels. I don't know what type they are.
Robbo: yes, I got a great deal from the same place as you bought yours. 2080 Euro, including Michelin tyres and transport to Sweden.
SO, WHAT ARE YOUR OPINIONS ON MICHELIN?
Thanks!
