Earwig 89 Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Gonna go with Toyo's here to :-)Best tyres I ever had on were Eagle F1. Much stickier than the Toyo. Not sure how much they are now but they are also under £100.Mark. Link to post Share on other sites

purple highline monster 0 Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 same as what i paid for my toyos, of www.mytyres.co.uk i have stuck with toyos for the last 4 years they give good mileage and grip, the yokos are probably as good or even better tyres but i had a bad time with yokos a few years back on a mk1 gti it ate them within 6 months!!! very soft compound i found, the toyos seem a bit harder and as said the ride is nice even with 205`s stretched on an 8" wide rim Link to post Share on other sites
