Hey Jukk,

How's the grin and that beauty SE you have?

I don't know about the tyres you mention but have just fitted Toyo T1-R's (same size as Goodyear Eagles) UNBELIEVABLY good and absolutely loving them and the price (See SWLC speak to James).

However i have just had the new suspension system from Lotus fitted at the same time as my new rubber and the 'whole' package is SUPERB - new car!!!!!

Worth a try if your Goddyears were as bald as mine!!!!

Hope that helps?

Hi Roger!

The grin is still on!!

Do you have different marque in rear tyres?

I have a power to choose new tyres for my Esprit before I collect the car and I think the rear and front tyres should be the same marque!?

Hey Jukka,

Yes i'm running Toyo Proxes T1-R's all round:

ESPRIT TURBO SE

215/45 ZR 15 (Originally 215/50 ZR 15)

I have the Toyos on my daily drive, and they improved the handling quite a lot , I have them on the front of my Esprit and will have them on my rears when the time comes, Renu my partner also has them on her BMW330

Don't like the toyo's

also pirelli's have proven to be no good

I have the Dunlop SP 8000 series

nice soft tire

brings the extra HP's perfect to the tarmac On dry and wet

Never tried the goodyear Eagle's on this car but they are soft too

Had some michelin pilot sport cup's on my 993. super tyres

didn't try them on my SE. Why ? don't know ! maybe next time

gr Rens
