I've been looking for a set of 205/45/16 tires for the street and weekend road racing. Everyother set of tires I have been intrested in came in 215 wide or 40 or 50 series. Has anyone owned a set or know of someone who does?

Unless anyone knows where I can find a set of 205/45/16 Neova's in stock. Thanks

 

bad *** all around tire i highly recommend

 

I agree this is a great tire, not as sticky as the azenies but great threadlife. Search in the wheel and tire forum, this tire has been discussed a few times.

well i have had the old azenies and the new ones and i still prefer the goodyears

 

I had the F1 GS-D3's in 195/45/16 on my B16 hatch before I got the ITR. I wish I could afford them again, but I'm using some Khumo SPT's in the meantime.

They are quite possibly some of the best all around tires I've ever used. I actually perfer them over the Azenis, especially because the Azenis are one of the heaviest tires on the market. But still, the two tires are very diffrent.

But, to make a long story short, get them. You wont be dissapointed at all. And they actually last unlike some Falkens, and Yokos.

 

Very nice tire indeed... I have a set of these on my stock wheels and another set on my 16" TE37s.. they are a very VERY good all around tire... whether for the street or for the track.. these are awesome tires...

If I had to choose between the Azenis and the F1s.. F1s all the way... the Azenis just seem too heavy and they are not that great in the rain.. I've had a couple of sets so I can compare. The F1s are the best all around tire - IMO

 

If you 'need' absolute dry grip, get Azenis. If not, then these are an excellent choice.

You won't find these anywhere in the US.

Technically true; however, Ben @ AJ Racing should have some - he's using that same tire on his new Fit.

But he is in Canada

 

I have heard nothing but good reviews on the GoodYear F1 GS-D3 tire.
