[Dave J]

I need two decentish tyres Ideally looking at spending £100ish on the pair.

Are these any good? ive heard of Toyo and Yokohomma before so..?

toyos id say, look for T1R's there better than the T1S imo

 

[Dave J]

those are proxies

Proxies are T1s afaik. are the t1r's 'that much' better?

Those Yoko's look awful and are only W speed rated.

I need two new fronts and Goodyear can't supply anyone with GSD3's before xmas!

I'm not too bothered on cost....I just want similar performance to the GSD3's.

Any suggestions?

Sorry for the thread hijack dave, thought it'd save another new thread and I need 'em in the same size too!

I woulnd't get the R or the S I don;'t like either of them. How about the F! tyre?

 

[Dave J]

The W speed rating is up to 168mph V is 149 thats what ive got at the moment. Gunna ring round all my local tyre places tomorrow and see what theyve got. Get off work at 12.30 on friday so i can get it all sorted that afternoon

Toyo t1r's are ok. £112 delivered from ktec, 195/45/16

I use to use toyo,s but found them quite expensive. I started using Uniroyals-the rain tyre!
You may laugh as its listed some places as a budget tyre but its superb in my view, speed rated to 150mph, my local garge are doing them for £38a tyre but i am running 15" alloys.
Rag the sh*t out my car and ive found them really good value for money.

Do you mean the F1?

Are they the GSD2's or a different tyre?

Have I got any more options? I don't really mind on price, I'd much rather pay for the quality.....

Yep I meant the F1's worry missed that.

GSD3's are the new type of F1's I think

Personaly the only tyres I like for road use are the continetal 1's but there out of production for about a year now.
