For the Petra, 195/60 R 14 is perfect (provided it's the petrol version). I'll be getting that same size for my Vtec which also came with 175/65 R14 82T B'stone S 322 tyres.

I'm most probably going in for the Goodyear GSD2, one good thing about goodyear is that their tyres are performance oriented. The tyre is V rated, which means that it can sustain speeds of upto 240kmph, so even if you do 170-180kmph on your Petra, the tyres are gonna be pretty comfortable with that.

Don't go in for the 205s, i know they are tempting but, our cars (C Segment) aren't powerful enuf to handle that sort of width.

BTW, do you have any idea as to how much a 195/60 R 14 GSD2 tyre costs? Rtech you've got them on your Octy right? How much did you pay?
