funny named tyres
 
this may sound stupid but when i brought my subaru i was told about some really good tyres but they had a really wierd name that i had never heard of. would any 1 know what they may have been. its not going to be the usual kumho or toyo etc it was a random word and priced about £380 for 4.
Failing that has any 1 any recomendations of good tyres for a Wrx running 340/340 ?
Thank you.

Vredstein Sessanta's seem quite popular at the moment, although I like Falken 452s.

Don't buy the tyres that came with my Impreza - LingLong: they were made from teflon:D

lmao they sound about right mate nice 1. can you imagine me on the phone ordering them lol hmmm this could be fun or just go for falkens l

I have used Falken FK452 for a while, and I'm happy with them. If you are buying 17s they will be a lot less than £380 for 4. (at Camskill, anyway)

Do some research on here, for 18's the Falkens are about £100 per set cheaper, and both seem to get good reviews although the Sessanta's seem to be the new tyre that people are raving about:thumb:

Tyres - a whole can of worms

Think its fair to say each to their to own

Personally I hated Toyo's and even took them off (MY02 STI)

Try researching on here - after all its been done to death.

But you're guaranteed to find in there Michelin PS2, Goodyear Eagle F1 and Sessanta's
I've tried all 3 of those and the Sessanta's I personally find the best.

cheers mate very well spoken words. think im gonna go for the sessanta's tbh and ye the toyos aint very good at all hence the switch.

I agree, good tires for the price.
