well thats not too bad as i dont really like ragging my car in the wet anyways!!
so they would be worth the money then, just looking at the deal, they are selling them for £25 quid each and they are charging £9.95 to deliver all 4 tyres to my door!!!
check mytyres, sure they are stupidkly cheap there, about that price, and free delivery

fookin hell thats awsome, as soon as my web browser stopd pissin around ill get some ordered, then gotta get my wheels resprayed :lol:
whats wrong with t1-s's???? i have them all round on mine and ive not left the road yet in 2 years driving with them?????
dont they make the t1-s's anymore then??? if so i take it the t1-r's are a direct replacement for them????
I had some nankangs on my old 106 xsi, for the price i thought they were great... quite a tough compound !
:)
Nice looking flared V grooves, which should throw out water nicely in soaking conditions. But I don't see silica being mentioned in the blurb, so might get a bit slidey on damp surfaces.
Small asian tyre brands are getting better these day. If you are looking for cheap performance tyres; also check out the latest models from Hankook(z212), Maxxis(ma-z1) and Nexen(n3000). Not too sure if they come in 15" though.
But, IMHO, with F1-GSD3 going for so little money these days - I don't think any 15" tyres can compete with the F1 for performance/value.
Edit: Just read Lunner's post on price for T1-R, that look pretty good value too.
i use toyos....get them cheap ish and they seem to perform well

Never used T1-S's, btu apparently the T1-R's are alot better in the wet
