I've picked up a set of starlites and will need to replace the tyres, as i'm fed up of getting my ronal turbos resealed ...they currently have 185/55/14's on

I'm not looking to go too low, as it's a daily drive and there are too many speed bumps/pot holes around here. Would it be best to stick with this size or would 195/45/14's be more suitable???

I was looking at 185/50's, but they seem to be limited in choice.

The 165/55's will be the same amount of stretch that I have on my current alloys, which is not suitable for around here unfortunately :angry2: so I guess I'll be looking at some 195/45's...although the slightly bigger side walls of 185/50's might fill the arches better, as they have been rolled and pulled - and the offset of the starlites is pretty big compared to the ronals'.....mmmmmm, decisions!!!

On a side note - what height do people seem to be ok running to get over speed bumps, without going at a complete snails pace?
