There have been some discussions recently about tyres, if do a search should be able to find some threads to see what tyre people use. Goodyear Eagle F1 are good but V expensive and Toyo Tyres (T1-S or T1-R) come well recommended too and at good price however Toyo's are soft compound so wear quickly depends if your after performance or durability.

Regards

The original tyres i had on the car were Dunlop, they were :censor: !! wheel spinning in the wet something silly, and i wasn't even going fast, so changed them about 22K miles for my Goodyear Hydragrips, excellent tyres, even better with grip even in wet, but a softer compound so faster wearing, only covered about 15K miles and they look a bit low on rubber, so looks like i'll be getting some new tyres soon as well

I've seen the Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres, looks like got "V" shape as the tyre patteren, but even more expensive, and they told me they wear even faster than my Hydragrips :o

Depends also what your after I have a T Sport that was fitted with the Michelin's 195/55 and they were in my opinion crap, they did last pretty well (21,000 miles I did put fronts on back at 10,000) I have just fitted some 205/45 Falken FK451's and the grip is amazing compared to the michelin's although I would expect they aren't going to last as long.

Plus they were £55 each delivered...
