Best tyres for Sag

[S6 ROR]

Currently have the original factory fit Goodyear F1`s on, and couple are getting close to replacement. Couple of questions
1. Are the original F1`s still available
2. Can you mix the Asymmetric ones with the directional ones, ie, directional on front and asymmetric on rear.
3. What other tyres have people fitted

Any commenets appreciated.

I've just had to deal with a similar dilema on my T350, where the front GSD needed replacing. I was advised by the chaps at Micheldever Tyres not to mix the Asymetrics at the front with the GSD3s at the back. In the end I want with Toyo T1-Rs on the front.

GSD3's may still be available:

I have 2 nearly new fronts for sale in the classifieds as I has the same dilema so changed all 4.

HI.
I am running F1's on the front and Assymetrics on the rear.No problems,however on my other set of wheels I had Dunlop dsg2 Intermediate track/road tyres which were far superior for grip.For normal road driving you should be safely able to have the front /rear as mentioned no problem.

Assy at rear with gsd on front is ok but not the other way round apparently

I have Toyo's on mine, though they are 19", I still have the original 18" tyres/wheels

TR-1's (19") all round for me. No issues at all so far.

Any particular reason given why- other than "just don't" ?

Just had 2 F1 assy fitted to the front of mine last week, got F1 directionals on the back.....
Felt alright on the way home but was only going gently bedding the new tyres in.

Not sure of the reason but was told not to do it.
I suggest you ring Micheldever tyres and ask them.
