Ok, my Pzero's are coming to the end of there life and I need to know.
What brand is gonna be best for 215/40-17's on a P1, Goodyear or Toyo? Forget the price, just go on grip levels... (I've trawled through the search and it always comes down to these two brands, I just can't decide) :D |
I had the F1's on my WRX and they were fantastic. Others swear by Toyos. AFAIK there aint much in it, but I went for the F1 as they are retailed by the main high street fitters, and in an emergency I could get a replacement (albeit at an inflated price)
|
Personally I've used Toyos on the original 16" wheels and then on the new 18" wheels. How they compare to the Goodyears as I havent had both I cant say, but I've been please with both the grip and the life I've had from them.
If you near(ish) to Northampton give Mark a ring at Tyres Northampton on 01604 588599. Not always the cheapest but the service is beyond compare. My 2p worth Steve |
That's a good point, I guess I should go for what is available locally. I never thought of that :D
Cheers |
Arrr now Northampton isn't too far away, that's a good option as well. I'll give them a call at the weekend :)

You also have to bear in mind that any other tyres you use will be oversized as Pirelli and I think Falken are the only ones who make the correct size.
On my P1 I made the change to Toyos (215s), having sucessfully run them on my '98. They offer excellent wet and dry grip, but like most decent tyres, have a limited life. Josh |

just bought some goodyear F1 eagles(new design) for my P1.....awesome grip:D |
Corr blimey, you guy's aren't helping me. Some say one, other say the other. :D :D :D
|
trust me..... its goodyear all the way:D
|
Toyo proxies best for grip and price IMO..Hope that helps;)
|
I've had both Goodyear F1's and Toyo's - currently got Toyos on but replacement is due and Goodyears are going back on - 'nuff said.
