I got eagle F1's on the front of mine and Toyo's on the rear.

The toyo's are good for the money but they wear on the shoulders quick, they are s**t in the rain when they get low on tread and they get very hot.

Other than that, they are lovely.

I once run eagles in this size never again!!!
not much in the way of side wall protection so if you leather a pothole you wheel well defo take the brunt of it!

Paid a fair whack for mine back then too! Sad

T1-S are pretty good!

Yeah saying that, i seem to have developed a dent in my rim, either from a stone/rock, cats eye or a pot hole!

Got some Parada Spec 2's on order now!
