I have goodyear eagle F1 tyres all around, they are pretty good, good in wet and dry, last forever, look hot, and i havnt slipped on them yet  :smiley: Except on ice, but that dont count.

Just as good as the Toyo T1-R's yeah, same price aswell, just personal preference at the end of the day

mtyres.co.uk seems quite expensive.

They are quoting me £71.70 for T1-R's and camskill are quoting £58.90.

Yeah - I'm actually considering selling my alloys back to standard Gti rims.  The height at the front in about 2 inches at least higher at the front than the back.  Can't afford to slam it either!

Looks like i'll be getting t1-r's.  Unless anyone can recommend a harder compound.
