I have searched through to get feedback - there are now so many results it becomes difficult to make a decision, as individual opinions depend on the posters tyre usage.
I have 17" x 7J front rims ET26, 18 x 8J rear rims ET35. Currently 195 front, 235 rear. No rubbing, so i know sticking near to these sizes should be ok for me.
My intended usage is about 4000 road miles a year, with "very spirited" weekend country road driving in the dry, a hoon, occasional use in the wet, including some use in the winter (but happy to take it easy when the weather isnt favourable). The car is likely to do a National, and maybe another track day each year.
After searching i think the contenders are,
Based upon the usage above, any suggestions. The KU39 really are much cheaper, so if they are OK i would be happy to consider those, opinions range from great to hateful on the KU39 so a bit confused on that one. I think my intended usage doesnt really warrant the need for the AD08's. I also think a 30 profile rear wheel is getting a little too thin for road use so not sure on the Toyo either.
Should i stick to 205 fronts? i dont think i really need to go to 215 front as i dont tend to suffer from under steer on the road. I have a 1" ARB and 4 channel ABS (and considering fitting an ABS cut off before the national).
Thanks
