Why Leeds?? I have a mate that owns a tyre company and another that is quite high within ATS but I get my tyres from

or

Is there a specific reason why you want those tyres??

Most tyre places can order anything if they don't have it on the shelf. Just try your local tyre place and ask them.

I live in Ireland, and everything is expensive here. Have Eagle F1s on the back, so would like some on the front too.
Parents are off to Leeds with the car in February so seemed like a good idea...

I've had Eagle F1s on an E34 535is and E36 M3 Evo and won't go past them. Apart from the grip, I like the idea of the protection the side wall gives to the rim.

Getting a set of Mims reburbed soon and was thinking about a set of F1 as I don't want the polished rims kerbed but the Goodyear site only lists the older GSD2s in 205/55/15, anyone know if GSD3s are available?

Cheers,

Mick

AFAIK you can only get old GSD2 stock of 205/55/15 eagle f1, and practically nowhere has them
http://www.topgear.co.uk/acatalog/15__G ... _Tyres.php
has them listed at £90 a corner, but no idea if they actually have any
If so you could order them, have em delivered?

I was thinking of trying 195/50/15 eagle f1 GSD3 as thats the nearest size you can easily get and at half that price
Cheers,
Robin

Car-Nut: Yes, rubbing issues on the rear arches but that was down to -60/40 H&R Cup Kit. I have now changed to -30mm H&R all round and no problems.
