Can anyone help please?
I've just purchased a p1 and I'm changing the wheels to 18s.The dilema I have is what tyres do I put on.I have been told the only 225/35/18 tyre you can put on the p1 without it catching, is the p zero.However I have also been told that these are crap in the wet.I've been told by somebody else(mellow)that the 215/35/18 toyo tyre is exellent.Could anybody else give me there opinion on what tyres they run on there p1,and if they do run any other tyre than the p zero on 18s,what make is it and does it catch.

Cheers.(Also posted on wheels,tyres and brakes)

 

Well Simon Reeve mailed me some pics of his P1 with 18's on it and they are wearing Toyos so speak to him.

 

Simon initially ran with Yokohamas on, so there's three brands, and I'm sure I've heard of a few running on Bridgestones.

 

I have ran SO2's and SO3's with no problems.

it's **** - I've got the Goodyear Eagles on mine (225/35/zr18) and they're fine. subaru dealerships tell you you have to have the PZeros as that's the brand they're currently pushing.

have fun!

Listen to Yellow Mellow! I too have a P1 with 18" Wheels and have Toyo Proxy T1s. They're the same size as the ones Yellow Mellow mentioned and they're very good in the wet and dry. I've not have a problem with them and I'll be getting them again once my ones are done.

Cheers
