![]() | my experience of Toyo t1r's..... in the dry absolutely excellent, in the wet average, on the snow, potentially lethal :laugh: Also toyo's IMO wear super fast. If you can do 195/45/14.... sorry, it's a total no-brainer IMO. Rainsports.

Gone for Rainsports as they were on offer at £64 each plus your recommendation of course Mark. So they'd better be good or I'll hunt you down and complain vociferously :twist: Of course the slight problem is I always get lost when trying to find your lock-up which I've been to several times now so I think you're quite safe :lol:

My experience with them is totally positive and going by the last reviews i read of them, they've all been positive, so i'm fairly confident :lol:

It's bad enough I may not get the car back until tomorrow - definitely couldn't cope not having it until Thursday Fecking hate stupid tyre sizes

I really like them although the road noise can be a bit loud, grip and handling are damn good.
