I need new tyres for the TVR and these two seem to be good allrounders,

My Cerbera had aged GSD3s on when I bought it and I managed to spin wheels in 3rd at around 80 leptons once. Wheelspin through 2nd was frequent and 1st gear was a waste of time.

I borrowed a set of 18" Spiders with Toyo T1Rs on whilst my wheels were refurbished back to silver (they've been refurbished to gunmetal with blue flecks shortly before I got it, and it looked cack) and it made the car awful to drive and tramlined everywhere.

My alloys were returned to me complete with my new Eagle F1 Assymetric 2s and now I can apply WOT in 1st gear. I haven't been driving really hard on them, but so far I'm very, very impressed.

That's good to hear, are you running the usual 24/22 tyre pressures?
