Do 185/55R14 rub on teh wheelarches of your saloon ? Or did you have bigger than that? They fit ok on my saloon.

Dear All, As the forecast says a bad winter, I am thinking again of the best tyres for the Q’s. The 2+2 needs two new ones soon. The reviews seem to give the 2016 winter and all season tyres very good results over previous years, but the sizes they are making them in is not what I am running on the cars at present. I suppose there is more interest and development of this area. e.g. Continental WinterContact TS 860 has amazing scores on test. I run 185/55R14 on the 2+2 and have gone back to 13inch for the coupe as they ride better. (and fit the wheel arch without rubbing!) So 185/60R13’s. The closest in some of the new tyres is 175/60 R14. One, a Goodyear in 175/70 R13. Other tyres that are OK but not testing so well are available in the ‘right’ size. So it seems to be choose the same form factor with lesser tyres or change form factor and fit better tyres. So the question is what have you found the best form factor/size and what range is usable for each car?
