Just wondering what sort of price to expect to pay for tyres for a 172?
Whats best to get?
I just had some Michelin Pilot Sport 3's put on my 182... it's transformed the car.Whats best to get?
Pricey, think it was £105 ex VAT each fitted, but, with a high performance FWD car the tyres really are the most important bit.
I have Toyo T1-Rs on my 172 (16"). They are by far the best for the money (about £60 a corner I think?). But if you can afford more, then there are better tyres further up the price range (like those already mentioned).
Personally I am looking for 15" replacements to use my car on track, and at £33 a corner T1-Rs are bargaintastic!

I found T1-Rs to be a bit useless in the wet and damp conditions, resulting in understeer much sooner than other tyres.Personally I am looking for 15" replacements to use my car on track, and at £33 a corner T1-Rs are bargaintastic!
I can't fault Uniroyals Rainexperts and Rainsport 2, they have always been great in the dry and absolutely brilliant in the wet and the rainexperts are only £38 for 15"
