So today I bought a set of 6 spoke 15" alloys in need of a refurbishment off a Eunos MX5. As a heads up, I have a 97 BA so I believe that means it's Post-Ford. I'm taking the car up from 185/65/R14 to 195/50/R15. Can anyone suggest a good sports tyre for my driving style? I like to drive quickly on windy roads. Hope this helps and thanks in advance.

Size matters! I'd suggest 195/55x15 would be a closer match to 185/65x14, if you have the width available in the wheel arches. 195/50 is quite a lot smaller diameter.
As for brand, it depends on how much you want to pay.
Avon ZV7 are ok at the £60 mark, but that's relatively cheap.
I'm using GoodYear Efficient Grip (£90).
Or you can go up to a Vredestein for £110.
It's a bit personal choice. No doubt others will have other favourites!

Bridgestone Adrenalin RE003 are relatively cheap, quiet, grippy...and won't last too long- you can just about cut them with your fingernail! :-) But overall bang-for-your-buck is good dependent on your fun vs longevity balance and driving style.

If you want to have some fun for a while, and/or won't drive many klms per year, I'd suggest giving these a go.

They seem to go well on passenger-type cars, less so sports or supercars where they are probably an underspec, this is borne out in the reviews on the site below.

Have them on min 1.8, also in 195/55R15 (I think).
