Pilot Sports 3 are always a good bet. Black circles I use since you can book to have them fitted aswell, easy and cheap. Job done________________________________________ 205 GTi Red - G939 RTU - Died!306 GTi 6 Diablo - Being resurrected! Project Thread Looking for: VTS P1 Rack PR1.2 16" |

I've got Dunlop 195/55-15 SP Sport Fast Response as my first choice of Michelin PE2 in that size are no longer available. I've had them about 4 months and 2000 miles. I find them to be excellent and certainly way better than Toyo T1R which I've had in the past. ________________________________________ Cherry Rallye SOLD |

Avon zv5 on mine for the road. 100 times better than the s**t toyo t1r's that were on before. good balance of cost vs grip IMO . ________________________________________ Phase 2 Blaze GTi6PS3 - Black Ops 2 Engine crane for hire Renfrewshire |

Yokohama Parada Spec 2's will last very well and grip well in the dry.

P6000 are dreadful, horrible horrible horrible! Just like T1R's PE2 or PS3. The Avon Zv-3s were decent, so the 5's will be better again I'd imagine ________________________________________ Red Rallye - Rolling "restoration"Wishbone Polybushes available |

In a 50 profile there is only about £15 a tire difference too. One the current tire on the weasel are worn out it'll be receiving either ps3's or the energys. (As its the runabout). But probably the Ps3s seens as I drive the derv a lot.  ________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |
