Guest sco350 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) needing rear tyres for my TT. what are you using/ whats recommended? standard 17" rims and only mildly tuned and only road use, so something practical that won't try to kill me in the wet. Edited May 20, 2011 by Gaz6002 Thread title needs to be a lot better! Try harder next time please. (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveR Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I really liked the Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric and I'm actually getting on with my current Continental ContiSportContact 3s, although if I'm honest they're not quite AS good as the former.

sideexitsupra Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Supragirlie is selling some at the mo that may be if interest if you are on 18s. Sorry, just seen you need 17s. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been using the assymetrics for a while now on the rear end and they are certainly good in the wet, gotta wach them when they get low on tred though.

Gaz6002 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Moved this thread to Supra Chat as it's not technical. Also, changed your thread title to something more descriptive so other members can search for and see this thread and get the same help you did/will. Lastly - use the search function on this site before asking questions. The chances of asking something that hasn't been asked before are VERY slim, and we don't like repeating ourselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vertex Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 (edited) I've currently got uniroyal rain sport 2. best tyre I've ever had, beats ps2, proxes 4, zero Nero hands down. (my opinion) the real test came during a heavy down pour, I saw a puddle approaching on a dual carriage way and expected the steering to pull as I went through, but there was nothing. gripped all the way through. obviously this doesn't mean you can drive in wet weather like a fool, but its reassuring to know they are up to the job. dry performance is also impressive. 245/40/18 & 275/35/18 Edited May 21, 2011 by vertex (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I find P Zero's to be to soft. Bridgestone potenza re05a's are much better but then again toyo T1Rs are also a decent tyre. All come's down to budget, sizes and what the car is used for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
