Help i need rear tyres, ive got bridgestone potenza s03 255 35 18 90y on the rear and the front are bridgestone potenza so3 225 35 18 on the front which are still very good condition.
The problem i have is that bridgestone dont do the rear tyres that i need to replace which match the front tyre pattern. Apparently ive been told that toyo have taken over that tyre now ? is this true and also is it not good to have a different tyre pattern on the rear as the front.I want to keep to bridgestone as the front tyres are very good still.
Anyone hellllppppp pleaseeeeeeeeee

I don't know about the Toyo/Bridgestone thing but having different tyres front and rear won't cause you any problems. It's different tyre types on the same axle you have to worry about.

You know what, I bet the best combo for a Tuscan would actually consist of two different tyre types front and rear. It's not like you've got to worry about a spare on a Tuscan anyway! I don't know if anyone has tried this or what results they've had?

get some Toyo T1 R or S on the back in the same size, search on ebay, I think some place in southend on sea area has all the TVR stock, and cheap.
