Most people on here will use Goodyear F1's (GSD3) or TOYO T1-S.
I personally prefer the Goodyear but they do cost a little more than the Toyo.

One problem with Goodyear is that the outer edge wears very quickly

S0-2 is undoubtably the best tyre in my oppinion but they dont make it anymore

Michelin Pilot sport is IMHO the best out at the moment... but they are pricey

See the tyre prices for scoobynetters post I did last year... should be on page 2 in this section (Real-time quote!)
this should give you an idea on price.

Hope this helps!

Toyo T1-S or Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres seem to be the best in my opinion. I've had both tyres and find the Toyo's to grip far better in the wet than the F1's.

I have used F1's and Toyos and they are VERY close in performance, I basically went for Toyo's this time as they where in stock..
