Need some new rubber on the front as the tyres have cracked, do not want ditch finder specials anymore ( even though they have been fine )

Was looking at some Yokohama S306.

Anyone got any experiance of these ???

There seems to be a good half dozen decent types to try. Are you talking decent road type tyres that dont cost the earth (and i dont mean rock gard ditch finders) or something that will give you max grip on a track and be road legal?


Ive always found the Toyo T1's to be fine (there are R's and S's, cant remember which i sbest, one of them is to be avoided on a se7en iirc) - These seem to be between £35 and £40 a corner. R888's get big votes for a road legal track day tyre - around £65 to £80 a corner. Cant remember what the Yoko variants are.

What size are you after? - might influence what is recommended.

185/60/13 tyre size

Will be for the road use.. may do a track day one day.. would like better grip on the rear to be honest !!!

Cheers,

I've been running Toyo CF1's on my tin top as a Sporty all weather tyre but as above some tyres are more suitable to a light weight car.

Just noticed Camskill were doing them in 14" which fits my kit car for £35 delivered each! Hmm maybe I'll give them a try over winter now I've got two sets of wheels.

i have some Yokohama tyres on my dutton and my mk1 golf and like them.
