Iv got toyo T1's? dunno, older ones and theyve been pretty good allround tyres. Cant reall tell you if they grip at high speed cos my car dont go fast, but in wet they were ok.

Saved me in a few stupid cases where w@nker drivers do silly things. GGGGrrrrrrrr @ them.

The beasts gonna bee off the road for a while now, broke me fnarging arm.

What are they for your corsa? bet they shouldnt have been cheap.

Had them on my 16's, when Halfords put the wrong tyres on my wheels when I ordered them - as you choose performance tyres like Yokos or Toyos as an extra... They are grippy

This time I was wearing my blagging hat, and managed to get them for about £100 less than ATS an E-Tyres were selling thier budget tyres for in this size, which I am prety pleased about

For the Corsa's new 18's

i love them... they wear quicker because they are a little softer than other tyres.
excellent tyres!

Really? I was qouted £500 for them (one of the most expensive) at ATS the other week... I always thought that they were a very good tyre... I like them anyway, but I haven't experienced much else...

yes, i will not buy them again either, only good thing going about them is they have a rim protector.
