recommend me a good tyre for my pug

[gaz197]

The standard size tyres on my 207 gti is 205/45/17....and replacing all four to slightly wider 215/45/17. I didnt get on with the contis on my 197 simply because they didnt have a good life span, i changed my pirelli p-zeros from my leon as they were poor in the wet to uniroyal rainsport 2's, they were awesome in wet but not the best in dry!!! ive heard good things bout toyo proxes, but theres so many versions!!! I dont do track work, but im considering it, so mainly road use approx 6k per year and to handle 210bhp/235lb ft avoiding spinning inside wheel...thanks in advance

Hankook RS2.

Race construction with a road tyre design.

Bit dodgy in the wet but makes up for it in the dry plus the sidewalls should not roll over they same as a normal road tyre.

No mate!! They are cheaper than OE.

I dont know for sure but I reckon £100 will cover it!!

Where were you when i was buying new tyres the other week lol!

And back to the OP iv just switched to hankook V12 though if your really pushing and track work then to me the tyre wall seems a little softer than the conti's. But iv not done mega mileage on em yet.

I can do a T1-R in 215 for £81.14 a corner delivered.

If you knock up to a 225/45/17 i can do a Federal 595RS at £95.71 delivered. Thats great tyre for the money. Like the hankook rs2, halfway between an R888 and a road tyre.
