I run khumo ecsta sport (ku39's) and I can't fault them! Around £105 a tyre too so cheap in comparison. Lots if grip but not so good when there cold, definatly need a bit if heat in them.

It doesn't matter which you choose, someone will come along and say their crap. As someone said above, down to personal choice and what you want to spend.

I have Falken 452's on the front and I'll admit I don't get the grip like I did with the old Goodyear Eagle F1's that I had. What the Falkens have gave me though is more than double the miliage of the Goodyears, around 15k which isn't bad going.

Just put these on the rear. Replaced some awful Nankang (or whatever they're called) as they'd cracked. Not good when about to remap. Already had Kumho ecsta sports (ku31's) on the front and the KU39'S have superseded them. Got them for £84 a piece too :p

All good so far. Dry and wet on rails.

Hi I have pirelli p6000s on mine all round. Just done 4000 on them and they are brilliant. Nice and quiet and grip like anything! Booked and paid for on kwik fit website, usually 120 a corner supposedly but for them for 84 a corner online. My brother has them on his rover 827 and loves them.
