    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

    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.

    Regards

    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

    Yokohoma paradas very good summer tyres with loads of tread surface. £68 on camskill for ST size. Can't be beaten for the money.

    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

    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.
