Anyone know of a cheap mail order or internet tyre service.

I'm after some V rated 225/10/r15's for my MR2 Turbo.

I've got Toyo Proxes T1-S at the mo but they're like £101 each...eek. Its too near christmas for stuff like that.

I have Champaro on the back of my 200 they were on it when I bought it the only thing I can say is DON'T BUY ANY They have very little grip in the dry and fcuk all in the wet

[dave_s13]

I thought as much.

What about Hankook's, they any good??

I had Falkens on the back of my MR2 Turbo for a while, they were pretty good in the dry but not too hot in the wet. Very hard though and last for ages, I did three trackdays with them and about 6000 miles before they wore out! I only paid about 60 each for them.

Thanks it does, they'll be a much cheaper alternative me thinks.

Try getting Kumho Ecsta. I had em on the Supra for a while, certainly competent tyres, definitely not dangerous.

I had Cajah Tungaal GT Champaros on my Nisaan bluebird .. . I wouldn't countenance them on any car with more than seven horsepower . . .

Just found some Falken ZE502's for £165 inc VAT fitting etc.

They're the main contenders at the mo unless I can find some Kumho's.

Thanks for the replies BTW.
