Hi, looking for some advice about replacement tyres. Currently have Bridgestone Potenza on my 56 reg RX8 and need to replace the back tyres. Read a lot of good things about Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta, not too much info available about use on a RX8 but were one or two very good reviews, but mainly about other cars. Then read some of the posts on here which seem to imply the reviews might not be too reliable. Just looking for reasonably priced (not cheap), high performance, good grip wet/dry tyres which will last a reasonable amount of time. No track driving, mainly A roads and motorway driving. Views?
Cheers

I have got some Goodyear Eagle F1s on the rear of my RX7, can\'t fault them, they aren\'t UBER expensive, but you shouldn\'t skimp on tyres are they are the only thing that keeps the car on the road.

agreed i have the same tyres as m1tch and i cannot fault them, really good grip and they dont wear down fast either

The F1s are on the right, Put the tyres on about 2 years ago and they have had quite a bit of drag racing on them, they still have ooodles of tread left!

The Toyo T1Rs or the falkens are apparently good, but I can\'t completly comment on them as I don\'t have them!
