I been looking at tyres the last few days. I need 255/35/ZR18 (Rear)

 

and found these:

 

Dunlop

SP SPORT 9000

255/35 R18 ZR with rim protection £133 each

 

and

 

Goodyear

EAGLE F1 Asymmetric

255/35 R18 94Y XL NEW £142 each

 

What do you use and/or any recommendations other then that for that kind of price range??

 

Or can anyone get them at better prices then that?

Rubbish, Buy Some Fullrun's or as i call them Runfree's. Theyre excellent for drifting and they'll last forever and only £60 from http://www.Camskill.co.uk

 

Downsides: You may die because they don't grip for sh**! :blink:

 

Better tyres next time for me lol

 

 

 

And you feel this is good advice, why?

 

 

 

Well I wouldn't say it's good advise, it was just a statement that buying cheap tyres if really not worth it. I just put it in my own way.;)

 

How did you not read the sarcasm in that post James, your normally on the Ball ;)

 

I wouldn't buy cheap tyres for a car like the Supra, don't worry, I value my Car and my life more then that.

I put Dunlop SP9000's on the rear of my NA last year. They have been brilliant, I paid £102 +VAT in Wigan.

 

I really struggle to get the back end to let go now as the grip is that good. They are even better in the wet which I found strange to be honest!!

 

H.

 

 

Lot of people have commented on the Dunlops, I think I will go for them.

 

Thanks again all. :)
