What tyres to use?

Post by Paul V8 »

Hello, Not sure where to put this but,
I'm looking to get some new tyres for my TR7 V8. I'm using 205 45 16 wheels, can anybody recomend any tyres, i have Nexon n3000 at the moment and they are hard, lasted 10000miles with lots left, looking for some grip.
Any ideas?

I use Toyo 888Rs, very happy with the all round grip and handlng, even in the wet, But they do get a spanking on the strip, which severly decreases their life, customary burnouts do take their toll, rear tires only last about 6 months,
