Tyres...help

[CedA4]

Could anyone out there please help with a question.
Has anyone fitted any better tyres than the standard fitted to a 01 A4 1.8T quattro, if so what, and how much. It's coming to that time to change.
Thanks

Toyo Proxes T1-S - www.toyo.com Phone a local independent and get a price, somewhere around £100-£150 each would be about right.

Absolutely awesome on my A4 and A8, standard fit on TVR now and beat the crap out of Goodyear F1s and Bridgestone SOXs... (NEVER EVER buy Avon ZZ1s, however cheap they are).

Thanks bee jay

No problem, spent 3 years at great personal expense trying 'performance' tyres on my A4, and these won by far !!!

Fitted them on my A8 as soon as a I had a chance.

If you do get them, tell me what you think !!!

How do they compare with the original dunlop sp8000
I use toyo proxi on the chim 245/45 and have to say its the first time i have had traction in the wet!!

Hey Bee jay, an update.
I got the TOYO's you recomended (T1S) and found them to be great tyres and great grip in the wet / snow. I got them through blackcircles.com at £83 each fitted. Thanks for that top tip mate.
