Well I've gone for them cos they are on the back.
Was thinking of Uniroyal rainsports, but thought the fuldas would be better, partly cos they are more expensive.

so more cash means better then
I'd have gone for Rallye 540s or bridgestone potenza RE720s ( on the GT)

No, but give a vague idea. I really don't give a shit. They should be better than my toyos anyway.
Alloys look shit hot tho!

I know what you mean Colin.S. One of the tyres I am replacing is fine on the tread, but the side wall is fcuked.
I'll have to see what the Fuldas are like in comparison with toyos.

I've got toyos on mine and they are quite grippy in the dry but no as good as I thought in the wet.

Yeah I've got on with them. But the majority on here advised that there were better tyres out there.
It's all down to opinions and taste.

they said they couldnt find my address its not like i live in the middle of nowhere lol. it was all a bullshit really, cos noone contacted me to say. the stupid women made up some crap excuse oh the tyres got sent straight back to germany. put it this way, im not using them again, they arent particually cheaper than my local place, cos dont forget you gotta spend another 30-40 quid having the tyres put on too.
