Rich Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Size is - 185/65/14 and budget of around £80 for a pair. Been looking at the various tyre websites to get an idea of what there is in this size and price. I've narrowed it down to these from the reviews I've found but would like any opinions if you've used them or know of any problems? Feel free to recommend any as well Toyo Proxes CF1 Toyo 350 Falken FK452 Kumho 758 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Toyo Proxes CF1 = i have on the focus at the min, very good tyre Toyo 350 = never had Falken FK452 = very good tyre had some on my Lexus, good for the money Kumho 758 = had some on the Lexus, not very good in the wet for me Best i found for me, value was the Falken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Falken or Kuhmo methinks, the pog is not going to notice decent rubber so you may as well save some money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted December 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Falken or Kuhmo methinks, the pog is not going to notice decent rubber so you may as well save some money. Why do you say that? Surely the Toyos would be more grippy? I have the Falkens on my fronts but couldn't find them in this size, are they available? I had been thinking of the CF1s as they get great reviews and weren't that expensive on the sites I looked at. Can you get me a price for these Tony and the Falkens so I can see what the difference is and maybe a couple of others in the same price range?

jammy Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 kumho's aint a bad tyre imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Without being rude the pog has very little technology going through the tyres so a reasonable footprint is good enough, unless the car is driven to the limits then it would need savior rubber.
