I put Toyo Proxes T1-S 235x45x17 & 275x40x17 and from memory I paid about $280 & $470 cant be sure though. Not sure how good they are but great tread pattern and advised they handle well in the wet?? Leeroy |
Leeroy,
Wont be long and you will know how good they are. My first and current tyres are Falkan Ziex. These are definitely not suitable on a Cobra even if its a humid day. Other Falkens may be fine but I will probably not try them due to my first experience. Phil |

No traction, no action...**) **) :LOL:
Have a look at the sumitomo range too... |
I bought a pair of Kumho Extanzia Supra rear tyres in 275/40/17. I then decide to go with 17x11" rims and fit 315/35/17s
The 275 Kumhos are brand new and have never been to rims. I paid a bit over $700 the pair but If any one wants them I'll let them go for $500 the pair. They have been stored in the back of my workshop out of the sun so the compound should be fine. Cheers |
I run the Goodyear F1 Supercar tires. The grip very well. I have the 275/45 ZR 17 on the front and the 315/40 ZR 17 on the rear. Goodyear does not make the 315 anymore.
