Which performance tyre?

[Clawliger]

I have 4 new toyo t1rs on at the moment. And my god they are floaty, don't remember them being this sketchy from new on the mini.

Had eagle f1's on before, may switch back.

There's a guy on Facebook called Ben Patey he does them for something like £340-360 delivered in 215/45/17, he's in most Clio pages

I always try Black Circles and MyTyres, then go and try a few local retailers who often price match or better. I like giving my money to local business if I can.

I've only just got two new Contisport 5 fronts so aren't in the market.

But; am just genuinely interested if there's any 'bargain' performance to be had on these cars tyre-wise, or if some of the less well supported / sported tyres are equally as good as the better-known top-end stuff [I admire anyone who makes their own choice / thinks outside the box / isn't a sheep / likes to be different.......] !!!

Ecsta Le Sport KU39's and Bridgestone RE070s (VERY stiff sidewall i've read) being two that i'd be interested to hear reviews from 197 / 200 users on.....just because

Or anything else less mainstream than AD08R's, Contisports, PS4's etc

I run Michelin pilot cup 2's. Awesome tyres! I've done a review of them on here somewhere.

Grip levels are widely reported.

Not seen many write-ups on longevity. And for those seeking outright grip - it's often not a major concern.

Coming from what sounds like a long-term user....that's good to hear.
