Default Toyo's

Relating to this thread of mine: https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-...pe-bubble.html

I have been to my local tyre place and got a quote for T1-R's at a price of £128.90 fitted for one tyre. They guy said that these Toyo's are very unpopular are they.

mytyres.co.uk - Tyres for PASSENGER CARs cheap, bargains, look + save have good prices for any tyres however for your size they are £73 delivered including VAT then you just need to pay your local tyre fitter to fit them usually cost me £20 for a full set.

I have tried both Toyo T1-S and T1-R on my car and then I got offered a set of Hankook Ventus Sport K104 to try I wasnt mad keen but they were free and thought what the hell. I was astonished at how good they are. They are a better tyre than the Toyo's harder wearing and when you eventually do get them on the edge the losing of grip is very progessive.

I have done around 12000 miles in these my car is circa 400bhp and they have been 12000 reasonably hard miles.

Give them a go you wont be dissapointed.
