Sorry I know this has been done, frequently, and yes I have searched the topic here, but as other's have found very recently, some recommendations are already becoming VERY hard to source!.
I need 2 new front tyres for my 2001 T1, currently they are Toyo 235/40/ZR18. Can't get the original Toyo's, and was looking to go with Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's, but I've a friend who owns his own tyre warehouse and even he's struggling to get hold of these. He has mentioned the GY Eagle Asymetric's - initially I was hearing they were not a recommended option, but now they seem to be getting favourable reviews. Also read of a Dunlop option, and now Bridgestone Potenza's. Any thought’s good or bad on the Asymmetric, Dunlop or Bridgestone options, or are there any others ?. Thanks

I've just ordered a GSD3 Eagle F1 in 235/40/18 from Mytyres, they also confirmed they had them in stock. May be worth a try.
Alternatively the new asymentrics are supposed to be very good.

Thanks Pabs/Zippie, Cambs is a bit of a trot for me, but I'll give Mytres a go. Cheers.
