Which Alloys

Top two are better, bottom two are diff you don't want to be mixing tyre brands on the same axel, can really screw you over.

Personally I'd keep the P6000's and replace the other two tyres. Anyway ignoring the tyres £150 is an amazing price for what looks like an excellent condition set of Cyclones.... damn you!!!

I kept my eye out for a set on ebay for bloomin ages and they all had damage to the spokes or were silly money.

Dark Horse Roadstone

LOL, I would like the job of coming up with the names for these budget tyres. "Wun hun lo, slippy slippy ditch finder sport special"

Cyclones on the 306 look fantastic.

Squark · 3 Apr 2006 at 17:51

A friend from work has a 6

Ive always thought that they really suit the pug, nice alloys, subtle and tidy

P6000's it need to be

You can do much better than P6000's these days. Even they have earnt themself the 'ditch finder' nickname on the gti6 site.

I have just had all four tyres replaced on my gti6. I put Toyo Proxie R's on it, cost £67 a corner where I had mine fitted. They wont last as long as some other tyres but they have imense amounts of grip

Cyclones look great on the 306 too. I have a china blue 6 and am toying with getting mine powder coated white.

cool now go buy a set of toyo proxes for circa £35 per corner from mytyres and get rid of the ditchfinders
cyclones do fetch a premium you got a good price there, i myself dont like them v much i do however think wheelmania lions are gorgeous they look so much better just that bit bigger. Shame last set of lions i saw sell went for £1200 with no tyres

No they're not. P6000's are gash. Even the ContiEco Contacts I had on the 214 were better than these

Saying that, the Eco Contacts were great tyres!

Andy andy andy,

I said better mate, whilst its hard to belive a P6000 could beat such an amazing tyre as the Roadstone Dark Horse i personally belive it can

Wouldn't take less than a grand for my wheels

[edit]Although when I first posted pics of my car some nub told me it'd look great as soon as I changed the wheels.
