tyre question

[viceroy]

Im not really happy with the tyres on my car at the moment

Ive currently got Yokohama A539.

Im thinking of replacing with either Proxes T1-S or Proxes FZ4

What do you guys reckon and what other tyres should I consider in the same price range?

The Toyos are dirt cheap, mytyres.net are doing them for £41.00 but they wear very quickly due to a soft compound but they are good, had them on my Saxo. You might also look at Falken but I have no experience of them!

If you want a tyre that will last ages then get Michelin they will cost more though! If would recomend Goodyear Eagle F1s they are superb in the wet but they cost more than the Toyos but they look the dogs danglies.

damn, I just noticed that one of my front tyres has a couple chunks out the sidewall, near the alloy rim.

Looks like I will be paying a visit to http://www.mytyres.netwww.mytyres.net I am gonna get the Toyo Proxies.

Where about can you get them fitted ?

Try Halfords they were £6 for fitting and balancing the last time I had it done but that was a while ago.

I wish tyres were that cheap

the TS-1 tyres are going for £74.13 here
