tom_d Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I've read that the toyos wear very quickly if that's an issue for you. Can't comment on the Yokohamas though. Think ill be putting falkens on mine next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsrelfy Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I had toyos and found them to be long lasting. I got 20000 miles at least out of the front before I changed them. Only thing I wasn't that impressed with was grip in the wet. They just use to slide. Having said that I did ask a lot of them. Blackcircles was the best price when I got mine. Delivered and fully fitted at a local garage. God I miss that car. Diesel focus I got now still a really good drive but no where near as sharp as the zetec s. Shame that I had to sell it.

Lester1102 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Cheers I read that the sidewalks if the toyos were soft and people were having trouble with them on other cars that's my only concern and as I live in the it could probably do with a tyre that performs well in the wet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattDRX Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Yokohoma paradas very good summer tyres with loads of tread surface. £68 on camskill for ST size. Can't be beaten for the money.

Regards Adrian Oh that's good then, I read they wear out really quickly and on tyre reviews the wear rate by reviews was marginally lower than the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheriff Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I replaced Bridgestones for the Toyo T1R. £75 fitted each. No probs with grip here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I replaced Bridgestones for the Toyo T1R. £75 fitted each. No probs with grip here. In the dry maybe, not so sure about the wet. Those have an EU tyre wet grip rating of E. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
