Tyres
after looking at my rear tyres earlier, i need 2 new ones, they are Eagle F1 GS-D2 one is starting to split on the inside wall, and the other has 2 small bulges.
what are the best in your opinion for the s12, the AVON ZZ3 205/45/16 look nice. can get them for 62.50 each.

toyo proxes t1-s's are awesome in the wet and dry for a road legal tyre. They have won many tests done by mags etc.Im sure a lot of other people would rate them well too. Ive never tried the tyres your looking at but i dont think i will ever get round to it as im so happy with mine.

It's a good job you didn't go for the ZZ3's because they are lethal in the wet couple that with good front end grip and you'd be permantly swapping ends. I had the Proxies on a Caterham I borrowed for a trackday and even tho they had over inflated them they we the nuts!! enjoy!

it looks like the t1-s is now discontinued. but they have the t1-r that seems to be out performng the t1-s, getting 5/5 on most sites for wet and dry. £58.20 delivered from your site.
**on this site, they review them, and someone also said the t1-r is the uber version of the t1-s. http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?p=918157 i think thats the tyre for me, ive heard a lot of bad things bout the eagles on this and the sx forum, shredding the inside wall.

Consider Falken 452 s mate. I ran toyo t1 s and r's on my subaru and due to silica compound awesome in wet and dry alike. Now i run falken 452 s as slightly cheaper but still silica compound last longer and excellent grip. Mailorder best my tyres as stated in previous thread.
