If price wasn't an issue, which tyre would you opt for?

Both the local tyre specialists I use (Micheldever and Denmead) had no issues at all about fitting 275/30s.

When my F1s needed replacing I went back to PS2s. Why? My experience of PZeros, PS2 and F1s is that PZeros wear out real fast, PS2s cost 20% more than F1s but have lasted 40% longer, so in terms of cost per mile (for me) they're cheaper.

I am very happy with my Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics, previous tyres I had was the P-zero Rossos, I have only ever had those 2 tyre makes on my RS4. the F1s performed great around the ring, so much better than my previous P-zeros. I had mine fitted at around £840 (all in, including 4WLA) you can pick them up slightly cheaper. so I can not comment on any other make, I do fancy the R888 (for dry use only )
Same here only, only had P Zero's & F1's (275)...prefer the F1's tho. Having tracked both, I agree with Sonny - just excellent, hard wearing tyres.

As for them Toyo R888's - they are in a different league...at the end of the ADI day @ Combs recently, was on the pace of the 'Audi' RS6 guy... :bowdown:

The Toyo's are alright in the wet, but NOT standing water... :nogarors4:
