Having done the best part of a thousand miles over the last few days, i've noticed my front tyres are a little low - probably borderline.

I need some front tyres for my 98 2.0 si Mondeo Hack.

Now i know they're are not the last word in performance but i require a decent tyre that grips well in wet and dry with a reasonable wear rate.

Was thinking of fitting Falken tyres - anyone had experience of these?

Advice appreciated.

Cheers

 

Toyo T1R was a great all round tyre on my Scoob and still had tread left when i sold it having done 26k on them

 

I like Toyo's but dont think they do them with a 60 section profile for a 15inch wheel

 

mate put falkens on his 97 2.0 Si and they were awful. Wet roadholding was a joke.

 

Thanks for that - was gonna buy these as well.

cheers

what has he got on it now btw?

 

Now - he's sold it and got a Focus ST.

I've got Federal SS595's which for the money are good value and grip well, not sure they'll do them in your size though.

The lower spec are 195/60/15 which I think is what you'll need. They are SS535's
