Paul,

There's been plenty of threads on tyres here in Australia, but at the end of the day its your choice.

With 16" rims I really struggled to pick up a recognised brand and in the end went for a korean brand Nexen.

I'm convinced that gone are the days with tyres that you pay for what you get. The cheaper brands are good quality tyres these days and $ for $ I think as good as or even better than the "top" brand ones.

Depends what you are looking for. If its road work then choice is plentiful, especially with 17" rims - good luck
