Ok, my Dymags are back from Dymag after being refurbed and crack tested and are like new. smile
So now have to get some tyres for them.
I have a set of Bridgestone RE050's which I am not massively keen on.
Also another set of wheels with corsa's on.
So what I am after is a good road tyre, not a track r compound tyre, as the chances are these will need to be good in the wet as well as I am off to the alps in 2 weeks.
So the choices are:
Goodyear F1 asemetrics(speeling?)
Toyo Tr-1's
Michelin Pilot sports

Has anyone got any of the above?
Not interested in the pirelli pzero's as dont like em.

I've had Goodyear F1-Asymmetric for a while now and they are very good. I don't use them on the track, only road use. I'd not bother was Pzeros as they are pish.

I paid £550 for all 4 as I recall.

I'm also happy with the Goodyear F1s. They are also relatively quiet for road use.

Never used them on a Noble but they were brilliant on my old Beemer!

Is anyone aware of Costco's offer at the moment on the Pilot S range? Full set for £576. Anyone driven on these? Heard a lot about the F1s and the P-Zeros from people on here but not much about the Pilots. I've had some on my Evo in the past and found them pretty good - can anyone put me off giving them a go?

Goodyear. Universally popular choice. The T1R can be a b**ger to bed in and are almost lethal at first, plus the shoulders are very square and transition from grip to no grip is problematic (read brown trousered!)

A couple of guys in the States have said they're fine and dandy smile
