I also saw BF Goodrich banners at the Tyger Wheel and Tyre in Woodmead, so maybe they sell them too.

I thaught about that, aperently the going rate of km's on a set of tires are about 10 000km's, that is a bit low for me, then also what would that tires do in the wet...?

I have done 20000km on my set and have about 4mm tread left. I rate I will get another 10 000km out of them. But they are R1250ea so pretty steep. They are the best tyres I have ever had, that is Mitchelin, Yoki, Pirelli, Bridgestone.

Thanks Gary, some say it is good others say it's crap, I don't know an up here they go for about R1500 on the size I want, that is very steap, as for the semi slicks, I want but as I said, km's and wet handling....

Go to http://www.1010tires.com , they give reviews on the tyres. You wont look back at the TOYO's. I sometimes bitch they grip too well cause I cant get it sideways, or maybe I need more power.

I checked that tires out Gary, it has the same pattern than the dunlop 7000D and regal 3100D....I got the regal 3100 on now and it's not bad, and it is R650 a tire

Ja I had those dunlop/regals on my Opel and they are pretty good for the price. In the wet they suck, but that makes it more fun hey.

The reason I went with the TOYO T1R's is for the sake of R2000 I am not risking my life, especially when I have more power than most cars that use those tyres, BM's ect.
