What tyres? (up to date?)

[dann2707]

I'm looking to replace my 2 front budgets with something decent. I need 205/45/16 as they're for my 182

The tyre poll looks to be massively out of date.

What are people rating these days?

Just for my daily, 13 mile drive to work etc, no track action.

I know it's probably been done a thousand times, but the search yields massively old threads.

Thanks

I run Hankook V12's. Pretty good considering the price.

What's your budget?

What's your budget?

Maybe around £75 a corner. I just need two.

Same im looking for some new tyre for my 106 dci got conternental sport contact 2 on atm al round and carnt fault them but on my old dci i used toyo proxies for the price but never lasted long been reading and i think its between pilot sport 3s or perelli p zero nero im in 2 minds but at about the same budget as you

If you can afford them pilot sport 3's are very good.

Another vote for Hankook V12 which I got a while back for £150 a pair - does the trick for me

 

[ESmithers]

I just normally get two part worn contis

+1 just bought a pair at £95 each to replace the old sport 3s, the old fronts lasted 18k

running 205 45 16 Toyo T1Rs here in NZ. Grip like mad in the dry. Not sure about how many miles they will do. Edge wear seems a bit excessive but then they do take a trashing on twisty rough roads. No track usage.

Get Uniroyal Rainsport 3 , I bought them because my usual Vredestein Sportrac were out of stock.Tyres4less, Tong Rd, 2792799, should do you a good deal(they own Alba , and wholesale to all the other tyre fitters around West Yorkshire)

 

[Briv6]

Pay the money and get Goodyear eagle f1 assymetric 2 . Last longer than Michelin and the grip in dry and wet is immense . Never had a tyre like it !!

As above with your budget firstly Id get PS3's, if not either V12's or rainsport 3's.

tyreleader is good but they take 24 to 72 hours to arrive from somewhere in Germany I think.

 

[Mike Lane]

Have you tried asdatyres.co.uk

I had a look at them before I bought some wheels and tyres together and thought they were cheap.

 

[Mr Plums]

The op bought the ps3's about 3 months a go iirc lol.

Newer tyres have come out since the original 2005 stickied one in here.

and there have been no other tyre threads since 2005? There's one every other day!

Searching yields results from around that time too. I wanted to find out recent reviews of recent tyres.
