Best 964 RS road tyre?

[escobar]

Need some new tyres and was going to be put road tyres on this time. Currently got MPSC on but they are not good for road use and wear really quick.

Heard S02's are a good tyre for the road. Dont get time for Track Days at the moment so its the odd weekend blast which is why I was thiking road tyres this time round.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I'm on S-02's at the mo, and don't find the side wall is as stiff as Conti's.

I'll be back on conti's next time put it that way.

I've read about these Toyo's and they seem to be the tyre of the moment. Arent they cheap compared to competitors like Dunlop and Mich?

full set of 225's and 255's was £505 - £40 cash back 2 weeks ago, but i think the cashback offer has ended. still cheap

Any of the national outlets doing the Toyo's?

Specialist Cars is more than an hour from me and not great idea on barely legal/illegal tyres. (I know...I should have changed them earlier )

Anybody ever used Michelin Pilot Sport's? (not Cup's)

[batphink]

try www.camskill.co.uk for the toyo triple 8's - perfect for those of you who have a preferred tyre fitter and usually the best value deal

Couldn't find the Toyo's on their website

Cant get 'N' rated 225/45's anywhere.

My RS has 285/30/17 on the rear and 245/35/17 on the front - any idea what this is going to cost to replace and where I can get them?

Difference being if you go for non N rated your handling will be scary.

Enough said. Nobody stocks SO2's or Michelin Pilot Sports (N rated).
