I am thinking of getting a set of Conti Sport Contact 2 (215/40/18) £80 per tyre....though i think most people here have Toyo's, as i used to one...

Thumbs up

I've used the Goodyears, had 'em on last time, but now have Toyo T1R's.

Nowt to choose really, the toyos were cheaper this time out.

If the Dunlop have not changed the compound of the SP9000 from a few years ago, I would say avoid these! They were too hard (24k miles of hard driving and they were down to 3mm!!!) and appalling in the wet!

Highly recommend the Eagle F1s though!

Eagles Awsome, used them on the nurburgring and they were incredible, reasobable wear and excellent in the rain.

have a slightly soft feel to them once you get used to that the grip is amazing
