I need to get 2 new front tyres (due to my tracking being very out they have scrubbed the small amount of legal tred i had on them)

so the question is do i stick with what I have (toyo proxies) or do I change? Im incluined o change as the 2 tyre suppliers i usually use dont stock toyo so they are expensive to get in one option they gave me were Pirelli p6000s anyone any opionions?

oh and i need to get them today/tomorrow as dont want to miss out driving in this weather


Cheers

Hi the p6000 are not a sports tyre so don't go for them.
look for michelin pilot exalto or dunlop sportmaxx for max grip from a road tyre, but the toyos are great (i have them on my kitcar)

P.S. try my firm etyres

Good call!! I forgot about them looks like they can fit tomrrow AND the company I am currently doing so work for have a discount setup with them so they are coming out £15 cheaper than my usual tyre places and they come to me to fit!!!!!

P6000 are awfull tyres. Loads of road noise at speed (although you get that anyway in a seven )
