garethrees Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 Toyo Proxy T1s, been buying them for years, great in the wet and dry. http://www.toyo.co.uk/pages/t1-s.html TVR are now starting to fit them as standard on the Tuscan, so they can't be that bad.

Steve-H Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 Just for the record - i got my supe with falken 451's fitted all round. I got 8k out the rears and the fronts are still on with about 2.5mm left. No squeal when i pull off aggresively, and break away reasonably progressively.Dry grip was very good and wet was just as good. I'f i need to buy a cheap set of rubber - i'll be going back to these.In the mean time i'll stick to the F1's 255/40/17 = £74 235/45/17 = £70 http://www.ec-securehost.com/OnlineTires.com/images/FalkenFK-451_lg.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
