N80Jamie Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I havn't got any bad comments on the T1R's yet either. Very good tyre IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daz gt turbz Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 im running tr1's at the mo and i dont think there that bad but not as good as f1's which i usally go for imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mat Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Ive just had the same problem, ive got for the Toyo's again... there good for the money!It's a really shame they dont do the Goodyear eagle GSD3 F1's for 15's anymore for 195 / 50 / 15's! I would go for something with the 'V' shaped pattern as it gives you more grip and clear's water from the rubber when driving in the wet! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

t-j-wilson Glanza V Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 What would you say about going for the 45/15's? (F1's). The toyo's seem to be getting good reviews at the moo... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mat Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 What would you say about going for the 45/15's? (F1's). The toyo's seem to be getting good reviews at the moo...You would want to go for a bigger profile so you would go 55, if you can find them! when i looked they was about 80 quid a tyre!Personally i would go with the Toyos mate!
