So what tyres is everyone on now?

I've currently got falken FK-452's on the front (and something horrible on the rear).

Might be getting some new tyres if I manage to snag some new wheels though so wondering if FK-452's are still my best option or if something else should be catching me eye?

I am very happy with My Fk-452's

I will stick with them until something better comes out for the same money.

I've been using Dunlop SP Sportmaxx on mine for the past few months and have been really impressed

Re: So what tyres is everyone on now? - 15/05/2009 20:00

either
goodyear f1 gsd 3, best in the wet and very good in the dry, low noise. soft so don't last long

toyo t1r's they best grip in the dry by far and very decent in the wet. low noise and again don't last long

p zero rosso great tyre, low noise very very good wet and dry handdling and last alot longer

Dunlop SP Sportmaxx (215/40 - 17). Really good compromise.

Will probably try Falken FK-452 next time. They are cheaper and apparently very good too. wink

I have Goodyear Eagle F1 but next time I'm thinking of buying Continental SportContact 3.

Conti Sport 2s on the fr, Toyo T1-R ( new ) on the rear.

Undecided what will replace the Conti's later this year, but most likely go with Toyo to match all 4 up.

I'm finding that the choice for 15's is really limited, hoped to use F1s but not available in my size.
Any recommends as I think I'll end up with Contis otherwise,
Currently running on Goodyear rears and Jupiter (cough, cough not my fitment!!) fronts.

Just thought I would update this to say that I recently put Falken FK452 on the front and am very impressed with them both in the wet and dry.

452 for me too. Easily as good as the GP F1s and I doubt they will bulge on the tyre walls so easily.

well i have had a few sets of f1's and found them great tyres however when they are half worn i find they seem to lose their grip quite a bit imo,the shoulders because of the tread design always seem to look bald too when they have plenty of life left, maybe its me !

had some new 452's fitted for a few weeks now and so far pretty pleased with them and not noticed any massive differences between the two,not bad price for £61 each fitted either
