More rubber for the octy

[CHRIS ELLIS]

Been driving round with Goodyear eagle f1s for 8000miles now and there down to legal limit seems pretty harsh cos i'm using the right foot to heavely but to be expected but at

a: Moved it.

b: The new toyo's T1-R are supposed to be far better that the T1-s. I got about 10, maybe 12k out of a set of P-zero asemtrico's, this inluded some good driving days, afew trackdays and a fair few slip road tests of new roll bar's.

Check out the reviews section (soon to be moved) for other peoples reviews of tyres.

Maybe some Khumo Ku31, got some on a rwd car and they seem to grip quite well, replaces the regarded 712's I think (confirm).

I had zz3's, very good grip in the dry, cant say much about them in the wet as I never push it on wet tarmac. I would definately buy them again and the tread looks cool.

Ive seen new ones on ebay for

Michelin Pilot Sport II are apparently far better than the Pilot Sport in the wet, and are a fairly hard compound - they seem to outlast Goodyears by a good margin although they are more expensive.

The biggest surprise for me was the Avon ZZ3's that I had put on the Octy 4x4 a few thousand miles back. Normally Id steer clear as I know Avons werent that great in the wet but these things are superb! Try giving Power Engineering a call (01895 255699) as they worked out about the same as from internet based suppliers and if you are local they will do fitment/alignment etc.

The ZZ3's have a harder compound than Toyos and F1's so hopefully I should get 12,000 miles + from them.

I got F1s and had them fitted just before the Cone Dodgers handling day....about 15months ago....done more than 10k on them.

T1-R's I've done 18K on them without rotating front/rear.. Fronts between 3 - 3.5mm Rears 6.5mm.. Highly recommended,

Just had a quote for the avons zz3's from my local national tyres centre
