TYres for SE

[davidkl]

have followed discussion about 215/50/15 with interest and now I need to buy. I have new Toyo 205/50/15s on front but now need to replace the rears. Have narrowed it down to 225/50/15 Toyo or 215/50/15 Dunlop 6000 from Mytyre in Germany.
Toyos at £84 and Dunlops at £119. Suggestions please unless you are tyred of the topic
Thanks David K

Hi David, I bought the Dunlops from MyTyres great service arrived in three days, and I wanted to keep to the correct size tyre for the car so it had to be 215/50/15 Dunlops. Cheers Keith

I've just put a pair of 205 50 15 Avon ZV5s on, initial thought are they seem a lot better than the old hard 205 50 15 Bridgestones and old hard P8000s that were on for a short time, but it's always difficult to compare old tyres and new tyres as the tyres get harder and so grip less with age.

don't care what anyone says...TOYOs for the price there is nothin better

For what it's worth: Mike Taylor at LotusBits recommends Toyos, and he's done a good amount of reseach.
I have Toyo 205's fitted, front & back, and they seem fine - but then I'm not a track-day person and I don't test their absolute limits

I run 215s front 225s back and i have to say that i dont do trck days, but i do push her on the windy roads and the fronts don't let go, the backs only let go if i am using the revs very agresively and to be honest with my engine i could get slicks to to let go..................so is say again TOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOsssssssssssssss
