Tyre advice for Clio 197

[alyssagrey]

Hey guys, Looking to change tyres on my Clio 197 soon and could use some advice.

I’m mostly doing daily driving + occasional motorway runs, nothing too aggressive. Currently on 205/55 R16, and I feel like the grip is okay but road noise has started to get a bit annoying lately.

I’ve been checking out a few options like Michelin and Goodyear, but not sure if it’s worth spending extra or going for something mid-range instead.

Also had a look around online just to compare prices and options, came across TyreSavings while browsing, seems decent for checking different brands by size.

Just wanted to ask:

1. What tyres are you guys running for daily use?
2. Anything that balances comfort + grip well?
3. Any quieter tyre recommendations?

Appreciate any suggestion

What 16 inch wheels are you running? Standard wheel size is 17 inches.

Not an RS model perhaps?

You probably won't get much sensible advice from this forum as most people here drive 197s or 200s and run semi slick tyres with a mixture of road driving and track driving.

My advice is buy some Michelin PS5 tyres if all of your driving is on roads.

Oh yeah, he did. Odd tyre size.
