Hey Guys,
May be thinking of buying Kurts BK333 Alloys (not sure how much)
He said that they have Toyo T1's on them are they good? and if so are they expensive to replace?
Cheers

Price to replace would depends on what tyres you want.

If they are proxes like mine then around 25-40 quid a corner i think. But i would consider a better tyre to be honest as they wear very quickly!
