Which Tyres for a 855 Turbo ?

Oct 7th, 2004, 18:48

Hi,

Just been looking at www.mytyres.co.uk which I was recommended and they have some great prices. The question is, which one should I buy. I was going to get Pirelli P6000 to match the ones on the back, but the reviews aren't great.

Any good tips ?

Thanks,

Simon.

Also try www.topgear.co.uk

Tyre reviews can be found at www.tyretest.com

I've always gone for budget tyres which maybe isnt the best thing to do. But I can tell you that I have Hankook Ventus K104 tyres on at the moment which I have no complaints about. I used to have K102 tyres which I didnt think were as good especially in the wet. But still OK.
On another car I had Avon ZZ1 tyres fitted and they were terrible.

Hi All,

Thanks for the good advice. mytyres had the best range but Johnston's could deliver quicker.

I've ordered a couple of Dunlop Sport 9000s which had good reviews on tyretest

Thanks again,

Simon.

Hello,

I have found Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD 3 to be a good tyre.

Bought another pair yesterday (205/50/16) For £178 fitted.

Hope this helps.

Andy.
