Discussion and technical advice the SW20 MR2. 3S-GTE, 3S-GE, 3S-FE etc
Anything and everything to do with maintenance, modifications and electrical is in here for the Mk2.
Looking at the few tyres I can get for the size I'll be fitting, and it comes down to a couple of decent manufacturers:
215/45x15
Dunlop Sport SP9000
Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD2
Toyo Proxes T1-R
Toyo Proxes T1-S http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m4b0s308p0 the two Toyo tyres are here, not too badly priced. But I can't make out from the Toyo page what the actual difference is between the two. Anyone using either?
This is a complete stab in the dark (I've got T1-s's on the rear of my 2 - excellent) The S may stand for summer, and the R for rain, but its just a guess
Ah, got it... "Proxes T1-R will gradually replace the Proxes T1-S to be the ultimate tyre for performance use." - from http://www.toyo.co.uk/index.php?fuseaction=car.t1-s
Guess its just like the F1 GSD3 compared to the F1 GSD2.
