Family & Performance Tyre Test Link
Tyre Test Link
I am looking for family tyres, 175/70/13, dont laugh, its for my dad's Hyundai, those Hankooks it has now, are quite dangerous. And I found this link, I thought someone could be interested.
Any experience or suggestions about 13" tyres btw ?

I m thinking of G/Y Eagle Ventura, as they seem quite good at the test. Anybody has experience on family type Goodyears ?

I used to have 13" alloys on my uno turbo
the recommended size was 175/60/13
i used to run 185/50/13 Goodyear Eagle F1s
they were a very good tyre on that car.

Uniroyal Rallye tyres did well in a car mag test a while back in around that size.
I bought Uniroyal Rallye 680's in 155/70/r13 for my wife's Micra we used to have
