T1-R's or S-Drives

Had rainsports and IMO the s drives were miles better followed closely by the toyos

Nothing compares to Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 imo. Around £50 a tyre so not expensive either.

My Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3s warped after a few thousand miles. The guy at the tyre shop said Goodyears always do it.

I used to love them but won't touch them any more.

I'm running Kumho KU31s now.

Quite dear but pirelli pzero Nero 195/45/16 (assuming they are for your speedlines) they are amazing. They absoloutly changed my barge of a standard fabia vrs, I had people actually tell me it handled quite well.

Go on most vag forums They praise them like no tomoro
