Thorin Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Falken F452's. I rate them as good and even slightly better than GSD3's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Toyo T1-R's are a heck of a lot better wearing than the old T1-S's. My T1-S's lasted about 5 months. The T1-R's are still going well over a year later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt k Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I got 11 months out of my T1-S and they still had 3mm left on them, daily driver UK BPU at the time (400 bhp) and lunatic driving, very grippy too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of mileage did you do in that time, chaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Pirelli P0s here. on 18's they are about £150 a tyre so 17's should be less. Wet grip is very good, nice and safe. I get about 10k miles out of a set of rears and about 15k miles out fo a set of fronts. Which is about a years' driving for me -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 What kind of mileage did you do in that time, chaps? The S'2 did about 5,000 before they were shot away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supRo Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I would stay away from Toyo TR-1s. My Supra was my daily driver, about 15,000 miles a year. I've gone through full sets of T1R's and GSD3's. The T1-Rs are similar in the dry as Goodyear F1 Eagle GSD3 but worst in the wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kind of mileage is the very high end of what I do in a year. Few trips down south etc. Much urban driving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJI Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I've been hearing only good things about the new Eagle asymetrics. They are supposed to be the next step in evolution over the GS-D3s, my next set is definitely going to be these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Have the Eagle Asymetrics on the back, just on, haven't been tested on a hard run yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Which Pzeros: Nero or Rosso? Every set I've had bar one were Rosso's. I had a set of Neros aaaaaand - no real difference. I'd have them again. I choose whatever set Ibrar can get hold of cheapest, just happens to have been Rossos twice since the Neros. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I've been using Kumho ectsa 275/18/35 on rear & 245/18/40 on the front. I've got a 93TT and I've been using it everyday for the last two years. These tyres have lasted well, good grip wet n dry and are good value...see my mate Chris who owns Apsley Tyres in Hemel Hempstead (if you're near), he'll sort you out nicely...
