Damn you and your scientific waysOriginally Posted by Jiff Lemon
My bad. However kwik-fit didn't have any decent tyres in the list, so i had no real choice either way. And it woulda been 40 pounds more for the dunlops and more for the rest.

Tough on mirrors, tough on the causes of mirrors.
Yoko A539s on the front, some old crap that came with the car on the back. One of them is getting a bit low on tread so I'll probably replace them both soon. I might not go with Yokos though, they're a bit expensive and I'd rather have less grip at the rear than the front.
Rich :¬)
I've got these beautiful Continental ContiSportContact N.1 all round in 205/50/17's, damn expensive but by far the best tires i've ever driven with. The road holding is quite frankly immense, but damn they are expensive.

215/45/17 F1's at the front
235/45/17 Pilot Sports on the back.

Mickey Thompson Rears, Goodyear fronts...
Rears should last 3k (if im lucky) and come in at around £310 each - the price I pay for 'stickiness'
old car: Goodyear eagle F1's all round (215's)
new car: <something> 235's all round

I am running Dunlop 200 sport or watever they are and I am not particularly impressed by them,
I am open to sugesstions for new rubber as I am due a couple of new tyres, looking to spend up to £50 a wheel
Yeah we used to use those on our cooper, thought we had 13's tho could b wrong, used to stick like glue, on our 1275 cooper running about 115 bhp.Originally Posted by Pee
Howard, TiG has a Skoda Octavia vRS
Just had to put a pair of Pirelli P6000's on the rears of my MR2 225/45 R17's. Not sure how good they are yet but other MR2 drivers have got on reasonably well with them.
Only went in to get the balancing done and there was a nail in one of them. It was sealed but I didn't want to risk it. Luckily there was only about 1mm legal tread left so would have had to replace them in a couple of months anyway.
Dunlop SP Sport 9000's, 205/50/R16 all round. Seems it's what was on the car from new and the previous owner just kept with it.
Which is annoying, becuase they are £88 a corner from Mytyres
Hmmm, Fulca ? Anyone know if they're up to much. got four of the things and never heard of them!

what car is it on?
