Well SP9000's or Toyo's for a Chimaera, they will be mainly Winter Spring & Autumn tyres as the R888's will be on all summer, well as much as possible really.

My front SO2's PP are just about done so need some fronts just, what you all think, which is best??????

Both are good Colin. What's on the rear, if Toyo then maybe go Toyo but 15" on V rated so you'll need to get an approval letter from your insurer. SP9000 are Z rated.

I put SP9000s on my chim and they were good, I think they may have stopped making them now or at least renamed them.

Good to know about the SP9000's, can still get them,

I am running F1 Goodyears on the back for winter and will have a set of R888's on for the Summer all round.

Ive read somewhere on the tvr forums that Toyo are doing a new tyre thats something between a R88 and a T1R, T1S . so could possibly be the perfect tyre for a Griff / Chim . http://www.pistonheads.com/xforums/topic.asp?h=0&a... Ah here it is biggrin

Dont know Colin read the thread a few days ago and heard nothing since i think Tvrmonster is a Toyo dealer now so you could try them they might be able to help .
