iv got toyo proxes T1s on mine and yeah there good but they haven't lasted long due to the softness off them

First mod IMO should be a cupra intake and panel filter, followed by a remap,

You'll be looking at 175+bhp then!

All those brands I would class as budget tyres, you get what you pay for

can you get the cupra intake and panel filter online? ease of fitting?

yes, ask dave in the IMG SEAT section, he will give you prices and a part numbers,

The green Filter can be ordered from most of the tuners on this site aswell

My toyos lasted. 6k on the front. swapped them over, and the backs which are on the front need changing, after a total of 10k!!

Maybe i have a heavy right foot, spinning the tyres in 1st. 2nd and 3rd won't help either!!!

maybe you should turn on the traction control....
ive gone and ordered some goodrich g force. seem cheap enough, and reviews are better than most

ill be starting the first mods soon, cupra intake it will be.

any real advantage made by going to r17 tyres like the cupra?
