Original Tyres on an '03 Avensis

Hi All,

Just bought a used 03 Avensis and it has 3 different brands / models of
tyres on it.

Was wondering what the originals would have been - it's got 205/55
R16Vs - 2 x Dunlop on the front and 1 x Continental, 1 x Pirelli on the
back.

Can anyone help?

TIA

Shevek

I'd be betting on the Dunlops...

What I would do is determine which out of this mess is the quietest and
get a couple more...

The rear tires are for the most part along for the ride, as long as they
are in good shape & the same size. If there is any question raise the
rear of the car--(properly supported) and use a cloth tape measure & check
the diameter of the tire. They should be with in a 1" of each other. If
they are go ahead & use them The front are important & should be the same
brand/size/tread style
