![Question](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Hi,
I'm about to get some F1's and notice there are 2 sorts- the GS-D2 kind of v tread pattern and the GS-A normal block kind of pattern.
Which ones have you got fitted to your scoob?
Has anyone tried 205/40/17 as these are £100 cheaper a set ,might be abit hard as the sidewall is 20mm less than the standard 16" where as the 215 is 15mm less.
any thoughts.
Cheers Paul

I may be being as thick as a Whale omlet here,
Block pattern - is that not Eagle Touring (NCT3's)
V grooved are F1's aren't they?, i had Eagle Touring on my last car and F1's on my current one.
Ready to be proved wrong (as usual)
