I'm currently running Toyo T1-R's 215/40/17 all around.

Really can't decide wether to stick with toyo's or try something different.

Any advice would be much appreciated, thankyou

Falken fk452 or ZE912

I am running falken 452 on my FN2 225/40 and have no complains so far, plenty grip in the wet and dry.

Im on Falken ZE912s all round, ok in the wet and pretty damn good in the dry. My local tyre place does them at about £90 a corner fitted and balanced.

Save up another 40 quid and buy Bridgestones.

Are they that good? All of my original bridgestones had been changed by the time i bought my car, so I've never experienced them.

yes... people on here complain about poor feel on steering and car behaving strangly on ditchfinders.. even to the point where they are considering a new rack of getting the geo changed....

It is all about the stiff side walls on the EP3... the 040 is the stock tyre (I use this) Tom from TGM says the 050 XL has an even stiffer sidewall and is even better but I haven't tried this myself

What are the sidewalks like on 070's? There about £100 a corner?

do they come in 205/45R17??

[Superman001]

Ive got the Bridgestone RE 050 215/45's and prefer them to the 040 205/45's and the FK452's ive tried in the past.

I think blunty had these tires before I remember when he got them he thought they were good.

I've got spec2's on ATM, there okay, good in the dry, damn right dangerous in the wet - lethal.

Sidewalls are quite soft too.

I didn’t like the 'stones, not enough grip for me to the point of being dangerous unless I could get some heat in them.

Which ones?

[J]

What ever came with the car when it was new. Once they were off I never looked back.

[tabblink]

040's. Never had them.
