These. ^^^^^^^^

Ran their predecessor on my 51 plate and now run 3s on my 04 plate. Great tyres in both the dry and especially in the wet (well duh!). thumbup

So, a follow up to this.

Having followed the advice gifted to me by your fine selves, I've mostly, albeit not deliberately, ignored some of it. I spoke with both WIM and two local independents who all sold me on the idea of TR1's owing to my standard set up. So today I went to Elite Wheels And Tyres in Reading (off Portman Road). Hunter Laser alignment done and 4 new tyres put on and it's made a world of difference. No tramlining, no powered steer and great grip - so much so it didn't kick out the rear in my quest to do so.

+1 Rainsports are a very very good tyre for the price.

OP, take a look at Skuzzle Motorsport in Winchester.

Got to say having had chance to have a good blast round south oxfordshire today these tyres are ridiculously grippy. On a few occasions I tried stepping the back out where it previously it was very easy to do so and it just want to play ball. Sooooo much grip wet and dry!
