Great, got the Bridgestone's, they are great!!! Need to save a few penny's so I can get the koni's and rsb. I got some oem sport springs that I will install at the same time. I hear the fsd's make all the difference.[sm=exactly.gif]

Those are nice. You should also look at the OZ forgiatas or Ultraleggeras. Are you doing 18s if so why?

Have you guys ever considered buying toyo t1r proxes they are very expensive but really good .
More for your higher end sports cars. But if money is not an issue take a look at those.
If your looking for light wheels, Volk racing has some high end forged wheels, very light and strong.
The OZ ultra leggeras are very nice wheels good quality.

my wheel of choice was the HRE 843R but could not see dropping six grand on tires and wheels on a 30 thousand car.... that is 20% of the purchase price of the car. It just did not compute......... but I still wanted them

HRE's are the ****.

Toyo Proxes for "high-end" sports cars? Psh. I ran ToyoT1's on my *Miata*. Course it had 8-way AGX's/Racing Beat springs/Fat Cat bumpstops on 16" Kosei's.
It was a corning mOnSteR. Brakes? What brakes... simply downshift and turn and hang on. Muahahaha!

I have Toyo T1-S which are pretty good. Will go for The R's next time. They are cheaper than Eagle F1's and Potenza's in the UK anyway...!

www.mytyres.co.uk is one of the cheapest places I've found for tyres in the UK.
