Looking for new tires...
hi guys/ gals,
Just got my mini jcw with 17's and have run flats..yes i know.
Since I took it out on the track they're not as great in performance as I thought they would be. They slip alot.
So now I would like to switch them to new ones and hope you guys can help me on this. I've seen others with 215, 225's etc and they look really nice.
Any one with great advice would be appreciated much!
With pictures would be great too! So I can see what they look like.
Here's me

I just installed a set of General Exclaim UHP 225x45x17 on my original S-lites - had to put 5mm spacers up front. And the difference on the car handling has improved 100%. The car is much firmer now NOT so touchy to the quick compensation of the steering wheel, if you know what I mean... I'm a shame I waited so long to get rid of the NF's. In addition, the car looks great with a more muscular stance.
