Hi Scott,
I've gone from Toyos on my old Prodrive supert's to Pirelli Pzeros on my ST2s (both 17").... basically the Pzeros are a little scary in the wet. Im sure i've been overtaken by Micras on roundabouts
... let let go far too easily. The Toyo's were very good for the money.... personally when the time comes to replace i'll be looking at the F1s (and possibly the Pzero Neros... but don't know why).
Tony.

Scott,
has Toyo's before. just replaced them with F1 GS-D3's.
so once they've beded in a bit, I should be able to compaire a little.
they already feel VERY nice, understeer is gone (but that could have been coz the part worn Toyo's (totally on the back - 4mm or so on the front!)) & balance under breaking is better (if I can tell with my naff brakes!)
both are WAY WAY WAY better than P-Zero's .. which were CRAP!
Steve
p.s. no pics of the car yet!? or are u waiting for all the new goodies to go on/in 1st !?!?!

B4 and After pics will be posted once I can blag a Camera.
I now have 4 ST2's and 4 Toyo's in the garage... all I need now is a bar of soap and a couple of old forks to put them together
P.S Know anywhere local that'll fit them for beer money ??

Just brought some Toyo's from http://www.mytyres.net for £68.99 each (including VAT and delivery). I had to wait 3 and a half weeks for them to be delivered due to the courier not being about to find my large office off a major road
Got them fitted for £8 per wheel.
I've never tried the F1's but I've had the Toyo's after the P-Zeros and they're a revelation in grip compared to them
Editted to add Tyre's Northampton number- 01604 751555. i was quoted £98 fitted for the 215/45r17 Toyos.
