at have you gone for? I recently got some Federal RSR's off them as they had them with about £30 off each tyre, and so far VERY impressed, had them on for Bruntingthorpe and the grip was amazing! not yet tried in the wet though!

I went for the vredestien sessantas as they had been reccommended on here by other T350/Sagaris owners. Had them on for bruntingthorpe also and they were fine. Only issue i had was when i was waiting for 30 minutes for planes to take off and the Vulcan to finish flying around, and they cooled a bit too much and resulted in some sideways action through the chicane. Passenger thought it was fun though!!

I went for Falken 452s, nice mid price tyre, and suit the Tamora very well.

those falkerns are cracking road tyre (not bad on track too!) very progressive and great value for money, though they do seem more expensive now than hey use to be since everyone has cottoned on to them!

What are people fitting now Toyo T1R`s are no longer available? i know they have been replaced but the tread pattern is vastly different.

see above for 2 good options, all depends on tyres size as to what is available really!

Well to my mind Toyo's are over hyped, 888s are a great track tyre, but their road tyres are living on a hype,IMO,smile

I'm experimenting with Hankook's S1 Evo2 at the moment - very beefy tread pattern, not of the assymetric type, and so far so good... especially round Cadwell and Coombe last couple of weeks. Lots of grip, progressive on the limit. No wet handling to report on yet.

I ordered some off Camskill at 10.22 on the Tuesday morning & received an email to say they would get dispatched on Wednesday. I could swear the site said they come next day, but hey ho.

Wednesday arrived & I got an email saying there was a delay from their supplier & they would be dispatched on Thursday.

Thursday arrived & I got an email saying they would be dispatched on Friday.

Finally arrived on Monday.


On the flip side, Black Circles have always delivered next day.


I reckon it's the luck of the draw.

you pay your money and take your chance it is also a personel driving style choice as well,i don't rate Falken 452,s at all. infact as i have nearly a new set and can't use them , i just use them for rolling road sessions now in the hope that they burn up and i won't have to see them again,actually i just had a bright idea i could use them for some tesco's car park antic's late on a sunday evening i love a good power slide duel with my mates.KCC rates them so each to there own and i also aggree with him that Toyo T1R,s are over rated, fine for pootling about but when you want to push on oooooh dear sadly lacking.I susspect people will put on R1R's now.
