keancy Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I been looking at tyres the last few days. I need 255/35/ZR18 (Rear) and found these: Dunlop SP SPORT 9000 255/35 R18 ZR with rim protection £133 each and Goodyear EAGLE F1 Asymmetric 255/35 R18 94Y XL NEW £142 each What do you use and/or any recommendations other then that for that kind of price range?? Or can anyone get them at better prices then that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 got toyos all around think there great, loads of grip Rubbish, Buy Some Fullrun's or as i call them Runfree's. Theyre excellent for drifting and they'll last forever and only £60 from http://www.Camskill.co.uk Downsides: You may die because they don't grip for sh**! Better tyres next time for me lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Well I wouldn't say it's good advise, it was just a statement that buying cheap tyres if really not worth it. I just put it in my own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you not read the sarcasm in that post James, your normally on the Ball I wouldn't buy cheap tyres for a car like the Supra, don't worry, I value my Car and my life more then that.

garethr Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Not convinced about buying tyres on the web. My local tyre place has always been either cheaper or within a couple of quid of the online vendors, and it's a lot less hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 I put Dunlop SP9000's on the rear of my NA last year. They have been brilliant, I paid £102 +VAT in Wigan. I really struggle to get the back end to let go now as the grip is that good. They are even better in the wet which I found strange to be honest!! H.
