This is gonna cause loads of controversy again lol...

Toyo T1Rs are my choice.
Goodyear Eagle GSD3s are good too as are the Yoko's...

Yokos good in the dry poor in the wet, toyos are good being very reasonably priced but on a rst the best tyre money can buy for a road car is Michelin but they are a lot more money hence people slagging them off as they can't afford them to even try them

I've had about 15 rst's over the years and tried nearly every tyre and "you get what you pay for"

So for me it's either Goodyear eagle f1 gsd3, toyo proxies or Michelin ( ask for a performance tyre as they do economy tyres too)

Brought myself a set of Toyo t1-R because they were on a good deal and seem like a decent set of tyres.
