im just about to put on 205/50/15's all round on my F, putting on these babies...
not herd of these before mate
some of the Fs ran 205s all round, i believe it was just the abingdons though
it's generally agreed that running one section down on the front is a good idea weather an F or TF
this gives a bit more of a balance on grip and adds some understeer (safer than oversteer or some MG decided)
CJJ has run 205s front and 225 rear on standard 16" 11 spokes and reported favourable resuts
my TF will be running 205 front 225 rear anyway when it gets its new boots (probebly Toyo R888s as it wont be going out in the wet!

is that price each? if so that is pretty expensive!Hi everyone,
Just been told by my local independant tyre dealer that the Toyos,215/40/16s will be available from next Wednesday at a price of £92 fitted, if ordering 4.How does this compare with what everyone has been quoted?I am still not 100% whether to go for 215s all round or put 195/45/16s on the front,Midnight is a 2000 1.8.The uncertanty regarding the front tyre size is nothing to do with cost but more with possible handling issues,anybodies input welcome.Just realised,not mentioned that I am upgrading from 15s.
Regards Neil
Oi, stop using foul language or I'll give you one!
I don't think cracking is good with regard to tyres.I really aint sure about the Toyo's.. I have had them fitted on Tigger, my 2001 F and I really dont trust them 100%... Beryl the 98 F has Nexen's on and they are cracking tyres...
