Which ones do you think are the best. They will be going on a track.

GOODYEAR EAGLE F1

or

Toyo T1R

I have had T1R before and like them. A lot beter than T1S.

Cheers, Steve.

Uniroyal rainsports. There is no other better tyre IMO. If on budget the nankangs arent bad. Bu there a bit hard for my likein. I can get through uniroyals in 3K. Thats just the price u pay for excellent tyres. They grip amazingly well. and as the name suggests they are excellent in wet weather

I will be going on a track, so it's cheaper than a new front end. So price doesn't matter. Plus ebay sorts that out, LOL.
