Goodyear eagle f1s are popular on here. I use them and they're great I just get through fronts a bit quick :/

I think they're about £81 a corner on camskill at the minute

Eagle F1s on mine and I'm impressed.  I don't drive the car hard though so I'd say the wear was very good!

Another vote for Eagle F1s!

Try tyreleader as well as camskill for good prices.

Thanks, it would seem the goodyears are the ones to get.
 I bought the car with dunlops on but they are so noisey at low speed just wondered how the goodyears would compare.
Cheers.

F1s on the car when I bought it.  Had them before on other cars and they're not all that. Tramlining increases dramatically past half worn, which has always been an F1 trait.  ContiSport 5 or Michelin SuperSports on next.

^not what they both said

I've not had an issue with them when they are worn other than the noise increases slightly
