Cyclone Tyres - Toms306 - 20-04-2016
Anyone got some for sale? Preferably 55 profiles but may take 50s.
Noticed some pretty bad tread cracking on two of mine this evening so could do with changing them really but not got the budget for new atm!
OR a px with some 'clones with decent tyres maybe?
Cheers
Tom

So...
Actually 195/55/15 tyres? Don't think cyclones need specific tyres
RE: Cyclone Tyres - Toms306 - 21-04-2016
Well I 'want' 195 55 15. But knowing the cheapskates on here they'll all be 50 profiles, and beggars can't be choosers... But that would've been far too long for a title.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - toseland - 22-04-2016
Well I would have PS3's in 55 profile IF THEY DID THEM, not being cheap that the tyres I want in the size I can get them happen of be half the price of the equivalent..
RE: Cyclone Tyres - Toms306 - 28-04-2016
So, has anyone got any cyclones with tyres, even just a pair? Otherwise I'll have to spend £80 on a new pair in the uncomfortable, lost in the arches profile as the tread cracks are getting worse!
Plus the Proxes are awful in the wet, much ABS needed yesterday, big brakes are pointless when the tyres have no grip!

That cracking is fine. Drive on man.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - Toms306 - 28-04-2016
Well I wouldn't say it's fine. Would you say it's safe/legal for now though? Those larger cracks have opened up in the 2 weeks I've had it, not so fussed about the tiny ones but don't really want treads coming off at speed.

I've driven on a lot worse with a welded diff, not being forgiving.
I'd personally drive on if it were mine..
RE: Cyclone Tyres - bigcheez2k3 - 28-04-2016
eBay? I think I got a pair of Bridgestone 55's delivered for £45. Part worn but still 5mm+ I believe.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - welshpug - 28-04-2016
got some 205 50 Dunlop SP Sports that have had sod all wear, much closer to a 195 55 than a 195 50.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - MY95 - 28-04-2016
eBay is a very good shout Tom! Plenty cheap used tyres on there, or get some cheap but decent 50's new (rainsport 3s)
RE: Cyclone Tyres - Toms306 - 28-04-2016
Rainsports aren't great, I would've gone for Dunlop sport bluresponse if buying new, have them on the focus and can't fault them, and it's not like I'm easily pleased lol!! However that's still 80 quid that I'd rather avoid, especially as 50s look daft and are uncomfortable.
Mei, do 205s scrub on the front, guess it's 40mm down. If not, pm me a price, theyll be more comfortable and fill out the arches better.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - welshpug - 28-04-2016
never tried them myself im afraid, but i do recall AdamB having a 205 width on 16"s without rubbing.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - Toms306 - 28-04-2016
Hmm, I'll just tag Adam in this thread and ask...oh wait...
I wouldn't think they'll fit the rear but I can't see any issues on the front tbh. Willing to give it a go if they're cheap though, PM me a price if you've got one.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - 306Dan - 01-05-2016
I run 205's on my 16's and have no scrubbing event with a slightly cambered beam
RE: Cyclone Tyres - toseland - 15-05-2016
205/45/16' will fit without issues

I know, had some uncomfortable Airaines with annoying spacers back in the day...
However these are 205/50/15. 
I won't be having these though as the '6 has literally cleared me out, if anyone else wants them, feel free.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - Eeyore - 16-05-2016
i think ive got a pair of 55 budgets on my spare set of clones. you can have those once theyre removed.
RE: Cyclone Tyres - Toms306 - 16-05-2016
The '6 is going anyway, this thread might as well be closed! I know Toseland likes digging up old threads recently.
