Accellera Tyres?

[s13asc]

Anyone heard of Accellera tyres?

Phoned up a few tyre places this morning and one of them mentioned 'Accellera'... Highly doubt I'd go for a non-brand tyre but just wondered if anyone has had experience with them?

Been quoted £71 a tyre fitted for Toyo Proxes T1-R's which I think I'll be going for - would you say this is a good price?

Hankook V12 seam to be the ones to go for.

+1. if you get these, cover them in greese and you will proboblly get more grip!

Never heard of them, which would generally mean they are gash! I'm using Hankook V12's on mine and cannot fault them. Half the price of the Conti 3's, nigh on same levels of grip and far less road noise. Huge thumbs up from me for those.

cheap tyre for your everyday driver, last fookin ages. shite if you drive like a knob.
