What Tyres

[alluny]

I need a new set of tyres for my IS200, Have been looking at the Goodyear Eagle f1 what do you guys think of these. Have been offered them fitted balanced and tracking done for £380 for 4.

Let me know

[Tony-Bones]

"Tracking" She needs a little more attention than that to preserve your tyre investment..... As for the F1 top score in my book and the price you display seems reasonable assuming it's a fully fitted price?

[alluny]

What should i do regarding setting up the wheel alignment then, it does eem to have worn on the inside edge of the front offside tyre, (michelin pilot sports) 20k covered though

Sounds like a case for the Dr

Once you have had your new tyres fitted arrange to have your geometry set up so that you wont ruin your new tyres and also improve the handling of your car

Go see the Dr. (Tony@ wheels-inmotion.co.uk above)

Mine was close but not quite right, feels much better now. :winky:

The range of Geometry checks & adjustment is incredible

compared to a "laser 4 wheel tracking" set up most places

provide. You will not regret it, get it done within 100 miles

of the tyres going on if I were u, or maybe even before

you get them on.

Best to ask Tony on this. (send him a PM)

So gentlemen/ladies

Are the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 good tyres then?

Will also sort the setup of the geometry.

[Rikos]

The eagle F1's come highly rated so well worth getting them on, i know there was a post up recently about a range of the Goodyear's being discontinued but cant remember which.

[alluny]

Think that was the GS-D2, the D3 have been reinforced and The Goodyear GSD3 tyre has been voted number one tyre in the market by Auto Express magazine.

Blackcircles.com say

We agree that this tyre is one of the best all round tyres on the market. With its V shape tread this tyre is built for performance first and everything else second! This tyre is leading the way in technology with its OneTRED design combines three distinct patterns in the tread design to enhance dry and wet performance. Our customers report that the life they get out of this tyre is above anything they had previously expected. Alternatives for the Goodyear Eagle GSD3 F1 would be the Toyo Proxes T1-R or the Michelin Pilot Sport.

[Rikos]

So i take it your going to go for the F1's, if you where a gold member you could get them cheaper

[alluny]

Well Goodyear have a30% discount going on at the mo, so I think its a deal its a steal.

Got to save some pennies to get the geometry set up......

Thanks

I got Dunlop Sp9000 Lexus version tyres with rim protector and better wearing!

Bracknell tyres off Longshot Lane in Brackenell Berkshire did mine for £75 all in so that was £300 in total!

If you wanna save £80 go for them!

It prob cost you £40 petrol to get there and back saving you £40 quid
