Tyres!!

[bettie boo]

Hi guys looking for advice on tyres, im currently refurbing my 15" f1 alloys and want to wrap them in goodish tyres was looking at either Toyo T1R Proxes, Yokohama Parada SPEC2 or Toyo Proxes 4! Any body got any feedback good/bad points on these? cheers Matt

Toyo T1R > http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Toyo/T1R.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Parada > http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Yokohama/Parada-Spec-2.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Toyo Proxies4 > http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Toyo/Proxes-4.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Out of that list I'd go for the T1R (I had 4 on my 15s) and they're fine. Pretty cheap from Camskill too at £34 each & Delivery: http://www.camskill.co.uk/m53b0s99p1667/TOYO_TYRES_CAR_TOYO_T1R_PROXES_TOYO_T1_R_-_195_50R15_82V_TL_" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

But another good tyre about the same price is a Uniroyal Rainsport 2 at £37.40 & Delivery: http://www.camskill.co.uk/m53b0s99p60615/UNIROYAL_TYRES_CAR_UNIROYAL_RAINSPORT_2_UNIROYAL_RAIN_SPORT_2-_195_50R15_82V_TL_" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'd personally avoid Parada spec 2 unless you only intend to use them in the summer. The Toyos are a bit soft but then they grip well.

All depends what you look for in a tyre and your driving style.

It's my stock answer

Pilot Exalto's are pretty unbeatable for 15" size i think...

I got two Uniroyal RS`2s on the front of my 1.7 for 66 quid fitted and they`re bang on.Way better than the P`s i had before.

I have hankook evo S1's on the puma, they just came second in teh Evo tyre test and are excellent....

 

[basscube]

Ive got Uniroyal Rainsport 2's and they are amazing both in the wet and dry

T1R's are great on my Puma and can normally be bought at a good discount.

Pilot Exalto's are pretty unbeatable for 15" size i think...

I'll second that. Exalto 2's are the ONLY tyres I'll ever put on my Puma. Great in the dry, amazing in the wet. Wear times are good too.

I've always had T1-R on my cars but then a mate swears by parada spec 2's..

Know of alot of people that prefer the toyos over the yokos and the other way..personal prefernce i suppose
