Ive used the following tyres from new, Toyo T1S, T1R, Parada Spec 2, RE040s, RE050s.

Overall the Bridgestones are my favourite, the Parada's and Toyo's feel great because you've normally come from a set of Potenzas with 20K on them, you listen to the comments on here, get them fitted and think they are great but new for new the Bridgestones are the better IMO, obviously if you raise the £££ bar some more I'm guessing the michelin pilot sport are even better. Like most things you get what you pay for.

Hi I recently bought my 1st ctr and it came with a set of nearly new zz3's fitted. Obviously i have nothing to compare them to but they hold on in the corners on this 100 times better than my previous golf r32, although that always felt like a boat! :scratch:

I have Avon zz3,and I won't be putting them on again,
Pots everytime. Avons were on the car when I bought it,
Found the side Walls way to soft when pushing it.
