What Tyres do you have ?
« on: 04 November 2005, 14:09 »
I have got my 55 gti in black on a euro import for £18400 last weekend and was expecting to get either Bridgestone or continental tyres.....but for some strange reason they have Dunlop tyres on ????

Not sure what I think of them yet as they have only done 5oo miles so far!

What you guy's and girls got ?????? and what do you think ???

not a mk5 i know but iv got gooyear eagle f1's on mine. Probably no need no anymore as i dont use it much but theyre quality tyres, expensive for sure but i think worth the pennies! Never had dunlop tyres tbh but they must be ok if theyre on a brand spankin new gti!

Enjoy it by the way, im not jealous atall!

Mine has contis on but I have heard of them coming with bridgestones and dunlops as you say so this is not unusual. The contis are crap anyway, mine have only lasted 8500 on the front, mind it could have something to do with a heavy right foot.

oh yeah , forgot the point there,  goodyear eagels , in the wet , it is like a dry day love em , no slide no aqua plain , they just plough through it , HIGHLY recomend these bad boys , blackcircles. com if ure looking , and supposidly they last longer than the toyo proxies that the scooby doo drivers love , long lasting no shieze tyres for ure VW
