Hi.
I currently have on the front Michelin Pilot Sport 225/35 zr18 & on the rear Avon zz3 235/40 zr18.
Not a good mix as think the fronts asymetric & rears not & just doesn't feel good.
So pretty sure the avon's are going. Pity as all have good life left.
So do i put toyo t1r's all round or do i put Pilot Sport 3's on the rear bearing in mind that the existing Pilot Sports aren't 3's (well it doesn't say so anyway). Are they compatible ?
anyone have experience please?

Hi Zippee.
That would make sense if i get new t1r's on the back. Does the 40section cause any issues ?

After looking round think i am going to bite the bullet & go for all four.
Goodyear Eagles recommended & can get for similar price to Tir's.
Is anyonee running these?

Thanks. I am looking for a good "planted" feel at speed. Do the Eagles give that?

Thanks everyone. Just had the goodyear eagles f1 asymetric2 put on (225/40/18front 235/40/18 rear) & immediately more planted & confident.((ATS £460fitted).know i could have saved about £40 but didnt want the hassle of delivery etc.
just wanted to finish the thread for nyone in the future.
