New Tyres.

**ed taylor** · 18th February 2009, 11:33

I shall be needing some new tyres soon. I was looking at some of these. I don,t know which would be the best, so I am after some ideas here.
Goodyear F1 G3 (runout) 225/45/17 91y
Dunlop Sport Maxx
Vredestein ultra sessanta.. 225/45/17 94y
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I have 215/50/17 at the moment. But as we know there is a better choice in
225/45/17,s

Ed,

try and get your hands on a set of goodyear optigrips

very good summer weather tyre with the added bonus of smartwear technology which increases water dispursion on worn tyres,

very quiet and comfortable ride and they do tend to stop you aquaplaning

regards

Dez

The F1s and the Ultrac Sessentas both have great reviews, Ed. What's the price difference between them?

I just got a pirelli p zero nero 225/45/18 from local wholesalers for £99 and going to get another to balance the front on pay day.

Really impressed with the grip and everything though will be able to tell better when i get the other side fitted and got both new ones on.
