My cupra tdi is ready for some new tyres. Dont have a clue which ones to get. I hear gsd3s are the ones to go for?

Thanks

I vote for using the search...

Or if that's not possible then Uniroyal Rainsports. ;)

These are the tyres I rate: Goodyear Eagle F1's, Continental contact sport 2's, Toyo proxes T1R's, and Avon ZZ3's there are more, but these are all excellent in the wet and the dry! You need something sticky to put all that torque down onto the tarmac! :D

The Conti's aren't that bad until you get down to around 3mm then they just slide everywhere.

i got gsd3's well worth the money, best of both worlds really.

however same for toyo's my brother has them on his zs, but he finds arent the best from cold if your off having fun ;)

F1's all the way, never let me down, in the wet, dry and on the track in wet and dry conditions awesome tyre, so much grip, could almost corner as quick in the wet as in the dry.

:lol:

That sums up every yoko i have ever used! Got a polo GT ages ago with some on and drove it home in the dry - ace! Next day bit of rain and a close encounter of the Browning kind!

My vote is the eagle f1 or toyo proxy. Ill tell you something however, you cant go wrong with a p6000!

i rate P6's higher than P6000 not so good in the wet compared
