Hi All

Have flicked through previous threads and no recent threads that I can see.

Looking to potentially change tyres on the T350 to 225/40/r18 (previously 225/35, but will have adjustments to accommodate) front and 235/40/r18 rear (as is).

Scrolling through the reviews/specs etc. I have arrived at the following. However, these tyres on a TVR are very different from those on cars tested albeit TT,M, AMG etc. so really looking for feedback from those TVR owners who are actually running them and have actual/honest feedback. The tyres are:
1. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5
2. Michelin Pilot Sport 4s (s for sport not Sport 4 plural)
3. Hankook Ventos S1 Evo3 K127
4. Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport

Particularly keen to to receive feedback on front end feeling/handling on uneven A/B roads.

Thanks to all.

Just fitted after a lot of research the Dunlop Sportmaxx in standard size. I really like them, very good and precise handling. And to my surprise very quiet tyres, you here more from the engine not the tyres.

The Goodyear Eagle F1 asymetric are (in front standard size) not offered with the speed index Y which is necessary in Germany.

There is a new tyre on the market you could also consider: the Bridgestone Potenza Sport, however this is a ultra high performance tyre and maybe not what you are looking for.

Thanks for reply. Will revisit the Dunlop as I did see them mentioned. And interestingly the Bridgestone did top the test where the other tyres I've listed were included (wasn't a 'sponsored' test).

To be honest, will fit the best tyre that can be recommended as our cars are so sensitive to set up.
