Also,can i put the stock estilo tyres to my santro? can the stock rims of estilo can be used for santro.My santro is 1999 model
155/65-13 is a good upgrade for Estilo
- Michelin XM1, Yoko A drive and Apollo Acelere are the good tires available in that size.

- Estilo and Santro have the same PCD so theoretically the rims can be swapped.

185/60-14

I'm looking for performance with less tyre noise.


2) Which company's rubber is good??


I didn't like my Bridgestone tires even though the company claims:
- 185/60-14 is a good upgrade for your car. Michelin PP,Yoko A drives and Apollo aceleres are available in that size.

- If i assume the rims to be 5j then u should consider 175/60-14(Yoko A539) or 175/65-14

"Designed to improve wear resistance to provide a longer tyre life." < not in my case, i already got the grooves giving up.
