I need some advice with running 13" either or 15" wheels on a Westfield FW SEIW?I currently have 15" 8J ET23 wheels running 195/50 Toyo T1R. my dilemma is whether I just change tyres (T1R is lethal in the wet) or wheel tyre set up to 13" 7J with 185/60 front & 205/60 rear R888R's At present I'm not sure if some of the handling issues are due to too much stretch on the tyre (it feels as if the tyre works on a narrow band in the wet & just drives off the sidewall) & whether 205/15's all round would remedy this, would this make the front end too heavy? or should I just go for 13"sMy o

Hi all, New member from today. I attended Stoneleigh this year and thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the Westy's lined up at the club. Visited Westfield Sports Cars in the hall Sunday, paid a deposit for a Classic Monday! 10% discount show offer could not be ignored! Now reviewing all the options and wondered if I could ask for some expert advice regarding the tyre choices. Is there a substantial benefit in upgrading to 205 width tyres over the standard 195's? Worth the extra £95? Am I correct in assuming that the 8" rear wheel upgrade would fill the rear arches nicely?

SOLD - Avon ZZR 4* 185 55R13 - may split into pairs
Dave (OnliestSmeg) - Manchester AO posted a topic in Parts for Sale
Very good condition. Those of you that know me will be well aware they've been looked after well. They've not been abused and have only done 12 Sprints, have been kept in dark bagged away from UV & adverse temps. Require alternate tyres to compete in Sprints for 2016 £ 260 180 ono - which is under half what I paid for them new (plus courier-age) Oh... & they're the softer compound. PM email if you'd like photos etc. Edit: Photos added -
Selling my old Toyo R888's: 2x 205/50/15 and 2x215/50/15. In terms of tread depth, one 205 has 3mm left on it, the other 2mm. The 215 rears have unsurprisingly been used harder - 1.8mm on one and 1mm left on the other in the centre of the tyre, 2mm on the edges. All measured and marked up by the car garage who fitted my new tyres. I have a photo if someone can help me post it? (Geoffrey?). May split into pairs. Located in London, but I will be in the Towcester/Silverstone area on Sat/Sun if that helps too for collection. Back in London on Monday. Price wise, I don't know how much they ar

Hi all, I've got a tyre question for you. I've found a stockist that can fit the new Toyo R888R's, and my current R888's being replaced are 205/50/15 fronts and 215/50/15 rears. The problem is, Toyo doesn't make 215/50/15's in the new tread pattern, only 205 or 225's.... So, should I get 205s on all 4 corners, or will 225's fit on the rears?...Any way I can check? Many thanks, M6 WSC

Set of 4 Silverstone FTZ Slick Track Tyres 19/58/R15 I fitted them to my Westfield and went to a trackday at Anglesey. These are the (more expensive) 'T5' - Medium Compound - but I found them to be way harder that I wanted so I changed over to my other rims in the lunch break. As a result they've only covered 50-70 miles and indeed the (slightly indented) writing stamped round the slick surface is still mostly visible. There are no flat-spots or cuts to the tread / sidewalls and they hold their air just fine. They have about 190mm of tread width and are about 580mm tall.. They've been

Hello Well after some considerable time searching, I've found the Westy for me!! Hopefully I'll be collecting it this week. It's an 1996 SEIW with 1.8 pinto Type 9 coupled to a type 9 5 speed. The tyres are also 1996! Hence the advise required. My primary objective is touring and I really need confidence under braking, especially as I get use to having non servo!!, I've been avidly reading all the threads I can find on tyres, have read the discussion on T1Rs and the MX 5 review on T1Rs v HS51s. Wheels are 15" and currently the car has 195/50/15s all round. Would very much ap

Im having a bit of a clear up and these may be of use to someone. First up is 5 off 3 spoke 14" wheels that were factory fitted to my Westfield back in 1996, They are approx ET18 (measured with a ruler). The wheels are not in to bad a condition, but have the odd mark here and there, the worst being a small circular scrape on a spoke. The wheels are fitted with good tyres which are AVON and Goodyear and all have at least 5mm of tread remaining (the spare has never been used) allbe it a little old. I have driven on them and they are ok and give quite a nice ride. I would like £60 collected

*** NOW SOLD *** 4 x Toyo R888 Tyres 4 x 205/50ZR15 86W GG compund tyres. They have recently come off a Westfield to make way for some R1Rs. These tyres have only ever been used on the road. There is 4mm of tread on two of them and around 2.5mm on the other two. Three of them are date stamped with 24/06 and one has 17/06. Whilst they date back to 2006, once warm they are still incredibly grippy and soft. All are of course still road legal but would be ideal for use on the track. Tyres are located in Cheshire, 20mins from M6 J19 . Collection preferable although will be willing to

After only a couple of hundred miles in my car i'm afraid i don't have a great deal of confidence in the Avons that are fitted. Fishtailing on a dry road in 2nd when not booting it has made me afraid to go round corners any faster than a family saloon car. I've read the recent thread about tyres and have decided on Toyo R1-R. After a bit of searching i've found these on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300878734289?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Is £295 plus fitting at £30 a good price for 4?

Oh no, not another tyre question! In the build manual for my car it recommends 185x70 r13 tyres for live axle cars. This was from the early 90's, so 20 years ago now. I've not seen anyone on here say they use 70 profile tyres. In the lists of sizes for the sorts of sticky tyres that often get fitted they are listed. Has anyone tried them? Are they actually available from stockists? Advantages/disadvantages? Why did Westfield recommend them back then? Jen
