A couple of tire and brake questions 850 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be Bert on  Sat Nov 17 01:03 CST 2001 [RELATED]

The car in question is a '94 850 Turbo wagon that I have recently acquired. It has the 16" "throwing star" wheels with 205/55/16 BFG Comp TA VR4 tires mounted. Two of the tires are like new and two need to be replaced due to tread wear. Judging by what I saw on the Bay 13 site and inside the wheel wells on the car, the section width is a bit too much for the confines of the tire. Any thoughts on a 205/50/16 replacement tire in the 85-120 dollar range?

Next, the car will need ned pads and rotors on all 4 corners. I have new OEM pads and was considering replacement rotors from Balo, Brembo or Zimmerman as alternatives to OEM. Just regular rotors, thanks, no cross drilling or slotting required for my wife in a street car.

Thank you for your advice,

Bert
