Hmmm, I need 4 new tyres after 5 months. I know which way is cheaper. but I also know which way is fun...

 

Just had 2 new rears from Blackcircles.com Toyo's T1Rs

 

Sould Crew, try Harris brothers in Swnasea, they fitted two rears (SO2) for under

 

I'm loving my grippy Toyo's. Never tried S02's.

IMO Toyo's feel better than F1's.

 

Just got a new quote:

9k is exactly what I have got out of my last 4 sets of rears so spot on really. I tend to get 16-18k out of my fronts. Luckily I don't pay for tyres

But on the wife's 330 they cost a fortune - they are about

 

I have done 43k miles i the car and only changed the fronts once!!! I've done 18k on the current set and they look very good. I'm happy about my fron tyre wear.

I think I know why - I am in perpetual acceleration and therefore all the weight is on the rear wheels due to the coter of Gravity shifting to the rear all the time!

 

I scrubbed 5mm in 5 months! I think the Toyo's will be a softer compound and will wear a bit more readily.

www.mytyres.co.uk are v cheap.

I'm thinking of putting the Toyo's on, but I have SO2's on the front. Is this going to adversly affect my handling? Any advice?

 

Im wondering that, also, do the T1R's need to be front 205/55/ R16 and
rear 245/45/ R16?
