My Tyres are doing them for £84.80 ea so that would work out at £ 339.20 for 4 . I will be getting some soon and i know where i'm going to get them they seem the lowest i've seen

Have had the F1 GS D3 put on mine ( RB5 ) since Wednesday and i can honestly say i have never been so impressed by a tyre. It completely outclasses the P Zeros that i had on their and i have only driven them in the dry so far, although it is now raining and i will be venturing out after the Rallye on C4!
The grip seems to be greater and there seems to be less road noise. Heres hoping for better things in the rain and i know just the place to try!

Can you post again when you've tried the F1s for a while - I have Pzeros and have always found them Ok but will either go for F1s or the Michelin Exaltos (scores match the F1) next time.

Had them on for 3-4000 miles now. Replaced S02's.
Very quiet, smooth, excellent in the wet, just as good in the dry.
Took about 1000 miles to scrub in but they keep getting better.

What would you say is realistic life for a set of tyres? 10,000 miles? any advance on that? I'm talking about road use rather than track days.
Thanks.
Charlie.

you should get loads more miles than 10000 unless you are hard on them.
if you rotate the backs to the fronts every 5000 miles and dont tear around every roundabout then you could get 15000 miles out of a set of f1's, but I know toyo's are a lot softer so you may be looking at 12000 out of them. Having said that you can do a set on one trackday if you are hard enough!!!

My F1 GS-D2 slide lovely in the dry. Hence the well worn shoulder on the front pax side
Done about 15k miles on them now and then rears are in very good shape.

GS D3s are great and won the Evo magazine's tyre test (the top eight manufacturers), they are very progressive on the limit and very easy to hang the back end on with great control, slightly less hard wearing than the GS D2s but worth it, mine cost £400 for a set of 205x16s LUV EM, BUY A SET NOW!
