drginger Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Ok so im either going with.. Vredestein ultrac sessanta Toyo Proxes T1 sport Falken fk 453 No track action just normal all year round drving with the odd blast here and there. After reasonable wear and low noise etc. Any comments are greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Just buy Michelin pilot super sports 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-350 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 (edited) If I had to choose I would go with the vreds. But the toyo have a better looking tread and sidewall, if you're fussy about looks! But I will always run pilot sport 2 or super sports. Edited July 30, 2013 by Dave-350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Not the Toyos. I like the VUS, but have yet to try the 453. My hatred for the infernal bands of slop that were the 452 is legendary, however I've heard good things about the 453 from people that know their tyres so they could be worth a punt. VUS have incredible feedback though, and I mean from the tyres themselves when you're using them: They really communicate what the car is doing superbly. But yeah, the extra cost of the MPSS will give you a tyre that is not only the definitive performer right now, but long term you'll save a fortune as it will last much longer than any of the other three.

Bems Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I have to say MPSS too. They're so good they're worth selling a kidney for if you have to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choptop Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 (edited) Just buy Michelin pilot super sports + 1 If it has to be one of the above 3 tyres go with the Falkens. Edited July 30, 2013 by choptop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Falkens easily...the Toyo's are more suited to smaller/lighter cars. Vreds are good but wear quite quickly. Personally I love the 452's.....they aren't the best in the wet but you shouldn't really be 'on it' in the wet anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtbiscuit Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Both the vreds and toyos you mention are both going out of production. If you want vred's look at the vorti. As for Toyo I wouldn't bother. I had the fallen 452's they are actually good Tyres but they need to be on a low profile and wide width, which stock zed wheels don't give them. They then become a very useable Tyre. From what your budget is suggesting the Michelin pilot super sports aren't going to be on the list. They are a good Tyre, but everyone has a budget. If it was me I'd be looking at the vorti's, not sure they do them in zed fitment. If not then the falkens 453. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus01 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Just fitted MPSS to mine. Well worth the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 MPSS are about £50 a tyre more than the 453's so £200 overall. Can you cut out a few months drinking for the better tyre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbeast35 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Just fitted MPSS to mine. Well worth the money. +1 same here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drginger Posted July 30, 2013 Author Share Posted July 30, 2013 Ok thanks for your help everyone, looks like its between MPSS and 453'3. Just looking at prices and have found so far 126.88 compared to 175.90 but then if they will last a good deal longer then the MPSS may work out cheaper?? And 350AD my concern is that whatever tyre i get i most defo will not cut out drinking for a month!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 if they're in budget, then get the michelins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drginger Posted July 30, 2013 Author Share Posted July 30, 2013 Well the budget I had in my head was 150 but if they are really that much better then i shall probably just go for them tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stutopia Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 MPSS totally transformed the feel of zed from the mixed Bridgestones which were on when I bought it. If you can, you won't be disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyboy Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Got the VUS on the front. 2k in and they stick in the dry and the wet. Just had the banana bushes and drop links done and the turn in has improved dramatically. look good too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
