ok anyone tried any of the following?

the HPZes are 65, the F1s are 98, the Dunlops are 116

so my wallet is crying out for the HPZs

i've heard good things about the eagle F1s, do we all think its worth spending the extra money and going for these?

these are for 2 FRONT tyres on a RWD car by the way, i've got Proxes T1-S on the back. and anytihng will be better than what i've currently got as theyre WANK tyres on there at the moment.

i'm after some all weather tyres as the car gets driven rain or shine, i'd happily compromise dry weather traction if they perform good in the wet

i had those SP9000's on my MR2 and they where the bomb!

but eagle's should be good as well!

just dont save money on tyres mate its the ONLY contact u have with the road!!!!!

Jim Galbally

just noticed, i can get the F1s and the SP9000s for the same price....

i dont want to automatically assume the 9000s are better just coz they got a higher RSP tho...

Rene

well i had em for 1.5 years on my MR2 2.0 16v NA 225/50/16 and i could corner it very hard!!!

but that's just my experience

Jim, did you try that place in dartford?

I bought 2 Toyo Proxies yesterday, 205/50/16 for Ł176 fitted inc valve and balencing.

Lurvvv the grippyness!!

Jim Galbally

they dont have any and cant get hold of any either

also thats quite a lot of money for 2 proxies...

the F1s and 9000s are both circa 200quid for a pair (fitted etc.) theres a Ł2 difference in the price... lol (15% discount on the 9000s)

also, i have my own valves to be fitted, so could save a few quid that way too

Went with my mate to get some F1s put on his Golf Turbo and I was WELL IMPRESSED by the grip in the wet!!!

Awesome tyres
