binliner 0 Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Get the toyos they give a nice subtle stretch and imo are the best out of the three (havent tried khumos though)I ended up getting Avon ZZ3 this time as I found a brand new set on ebay for £185 but this is what the toyos looked like on my old rims (you can just about see enough of the tyre to get the idea) Link to post Share on other sites
Rikki 2 Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 ive got falkens on my tt comps they tuck nicely 205/40/17 but go for the toyos mate Link to post Share on other sites
Jk* 0 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Toyo's, they are quite a soft compound, so dont expect to get great miles from them, where as Kumho are quite hard but are crap for grip IMO. I would go for the Toyo's there, but i have falkens on mine. Link to post Share on other sites

purple highline monster 0 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 personally i would get the Yokahama parada`s, they are supposed to be the nuts, and the tread pattern is stunning as well as functional other than that the toyos Link to post Share on other sites

I have parada spec 2 on mine but if i had the cash would`nt go past SO3`sOnly got a choice of these 3 as i'm buying off ebay.Think i'm going to go for the Toyo's as they are meant to be good in both wet ad dry condtions.Does anyone know if the Toyo's come with rim protectors?

binliner 0 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 they do but a 205 on a 7.5 will kind of lose the protection a bit, you can just about see here Link to post Share on other sites

stusnook 0 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Is that £220 for the Toyos a price for the tyres fitted and balanced? or just delivered?I'm picking up a set of Toyo T1Rs (205/50/15) this afternoon (which have a slightly harder compound on the edge of the tyre so they last longer).I'm getting them through a friend of a friend who I've invited to provide a VR6OC discount - I'll be posting details later this evening.
