hi i need a new set of tyres for my leon which are the best for this car for grip and life and any places in south wales where i could get them from

Hey Guest one of our sponsors Progressive Parts is running Black Friday and Cyber Monday offers - more details here
Life and grip generally tend not to go hand in hand. How much money have you got and how often do you want to spend it?
You could debate on here for ages what the best tyres are! everyone has a different opinion and the ones they got are the best too!
I run pirelli p-zero rosso all round £107 each and i cant fault them but people will say that there rubbish!
The most popular are good year eagle f1 asymetric about £130 each and falken 452 around £80 each it all depends on what you want to spend.
Whatever you get dont expect a year/10,000 out of them. as these cars eat tyres for breakfast!

My front F1's lasted 8 months, 9000-10000 miles approx before I had to swap front for back. Excellent tyres no doubt but dont last long on the front of an LCR. I'm going to try 452's next.

Ive had many tyre's on my leon tdi and 450 bhp mk4, Conti SC2 and 3 Michelin Pilot sport 1 and 2, Pirelli pzero Rosso and Falken 452, but the best all year round by far has been the vredestein sessanta Ultrac handles the water and snow really well but have done near 11000 miles to a set, in the dry the pilot sport 2's are better but they cost more and arn't as good in the rain and snow so i ate the sessanta's above them,
Some high prices quoted here. I paid £103 per tyre for F1 GSD3s on the 225/40/18 LCR wheel and was quoted £112 for Asymmetrics. Good tyres as far as I can tell so far, but useless in the snow

Ah, you're one of the people spinning their front wheels as fast as they can while the rest of us just steadily drive by are you?
