Good tread design and traction. Slightly louder than my previous budget set, but I'm happy with these.

Yokohama S.Drive AS01

Less noise and perhaps a more comfortable driving experience. The last pair developed cracks around them.

Really good grip. The only downside is they are a bit louder than my previous ones. Overall worth the money.

175/50 R16 Tyre Measurements

175/50 R16 tyres are low-profile tyres for smaller vehicles with 16-inch wheels. These numbers are fairly straightforward. The first number, 175, refers to the width of the tyre in millimetres. The second number, which in this case is 50, is the aspect ratio. This means that the height of the sidewall is 50% of 175mm which is 88mm. R16 designates a radial tyre that fits a 16-inch rim. The overall diameter of the wheel is 581mm. The shallow sidewall means the tyre has less cushioning which makes it uncomfortable on rough roads. Tyres.co.uk sells 175/50 R16 tyres.
