Tried toyos before and didn't like them, whereas the contis came on my ed30 and I thought they were very good. Don't know if toyo are supplied by any manufacturers but contis are so the question would be answered for me.

Vreds are still going for £99 for 18" & £88 for 17s per corner on Cam Skill which is a bargain.  :party:

I've only just fitted mine, so there's just 10 miles on them so far but others swear by them http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Vredestein/Ultrac-Sessanta.htm

Can't wait until i've worn them in  :driver:

Had toyo proxes t1-s on my Fiat and they where the best tyre ive had, (compared to pirrelli, michelin and bridgestone and khumo) for grip, but they didnt last. did about 8 months on them. best ive found for longevity with exelent grip are michelin.

Ps3's are about £150 a corner (for 18s) but id say they are worth it. havent tried vreds but everyone seems to rave about them, for that price id be inclined to give them a go
