Hi all
I'm looking to get new front tyres for my 180.
I have had a look at a few threads on here about choosing the best tyres, but I have heard best reviews on the Toyo Proxies - I also had these on my XSI.
I am now considering Rainsport , but I haven't heard any reviews on these yet. Does any one have these tyres ?? If you do , are they any good and would you recommend them ??
Thanks

rainsports are very good indeed.
they are sublime in the wet and on the dry as well and dont tend to wear a lot either.
ive driven them for years,they became popular the past decade or so and since then the prices went up as well.

All the suggestions are great i've had toyos before on a 306 and they were very good. I'm currently running hankooks and they are really decent, but not a bad price either

Toyo R888's or P1's.
On a budget go semi slicks on fleabay 205/45/17 's. £71 a tyre. Il find a link if needed.
might aswell get road legal semi slicks for same price as prices + extra grip.
