I might be looking to buy a new pair of front tyres in the near future...the current weather conditions have shown up how rubbish the current ones I have really are and seeing as they are wearing, I figured now is the best time for a change. Ive seen that Toyo T1-R tyres in my size (195/55/R15) are available at Camskill for £40 a go. Ive heard a few good things about Toyo tyres before, but the price does seem almost too good to be true. Before i commit I was jsut wondering if anyone else had any experience of them or could recoomend any other decent rubber in that size?
Car is a 1.6 Focus and gets treated as such so it's no performance machine, but I would like some decent rubber, especially as it has no ABS so locking the wheels is more of a concern for me. That said, I don't want to be spending huge amounts of money on rubber for a car which lives a rather sedate life. The last pair of tyres (Conti Premium Contact 2) cost me close to £150 fitted, which in hindsight is a lot of money to spend on rubber, even if they have been very good so far.
Edit: Actually turns out Im runing 195/60/R15 size tyres.
