Asked by Max Aug 21, 2012 at 01:32 PM about the 2007 Renault Clio

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

2007 Renault Clio 1.2 16v Dynamique S Turbo. Where I live the road surface can be very rough. I have managed to bend an alloy beyond repair and blown to tyres since February 2012. I am currently running the standard 195/50 R16 88V XL tyres. I am thinking about getting 195/55 R16 88V XL's to try to prevent this damage to continue. Wil they fit? By the way, I'm not running cheap tyres, I use Continental SportContact2's. I've done some research on potential tyres for increase in profile and the best option is the Toyo TR-1.
