New shoes for Duetto ( or tired Tire thread continued )



Greetings Alfisti !

I've been thinking of getting some new wheels and tires for my Duetto.  I'm 
currently running Centerline springs f&r, Koni reds, rear swaybar, slight 
negative camber, and a chassis stiffener   but the car is shod with 
Michelin 165/15 on stock steel rims.  The car could definitely stand some 
more and stickier rubber on the road.

A few digests ago someone forwarded a link for a Falken tire ( Azenis sport 
) that looks very promising, but the only size applicable to the car is 
195/60-14. Has anyone used this size before ?  I know it's a bit small, but 
my current tires are a bit large so I'm off either way.  I would have to 
acquire another set of wheels though.

I could step up to a 15"  and there are a lot of high-perf tires in the 
195/55-15 size.  But that would mean an investment in new Panasports, and 
therefore big $$.

If I stick with 14's I could dig up a set of Turbina's.   There are lots of 
ideas.

If anyone has a comment ( or some nice rims for sale ???? ) please email me 
at:  [email protected] or just respond to the digest.

Mille Grazie,
