I've never tried many different tyres, dont think there is a mint summer/winter tyre in one is there?

I'm impressed with my toyo's in the dry, but they are a soft rubber, plus with the car beng lowered they wear quick as feck on the inside on the front.

They did take some scuffing up tho, first day i had them put on it was raining and the front end felt like it was on ice.

uniroyal rainsports. yokos IMO are good only in the dry on a good surface. yet to try toyos, might be better than the uniroyals in the dry.

totally agree with that. ive had all sorts of tyres but my uniroyal rainsports are awesome. far superior to the toyos (had 3 sets of proxes) in both the wet and the dry. the ride quality with the uniroyals is so much better than the toyos as well.
