Its these or Proxies



Car came as standard on Bridgestone Potenzas and after two track days I have fucked the front passenger tyre.

Its £110 for a replacement Bridgestone so I thought about getting cheaper tyres all round, so that a track day will only cost £50 on new tyres not £110

Can get these for about £50 a wheel, guy at tyre place says there are going to be the next big thing very good tyres, very good reviews online alos.

has any body had any experience with them

I only use eagle F1's.....

You only have such a small contact patch between you and the road is it not best to have the best quality you can to ensure you stay alive?

I've started using yoko s-drives, find they are pretty good. I've had eagle F1's and toyos T1-R's which both grip very well but wear too quickly!

Those federals are amazing value for money... Not all budget tyres are crap.. Had fair few cars with those on and theyve been pretty surprising..
