Front tires need changing I've got Falken ZE 912's on the front and quite like them, t1rs on the rear
What should i go for for the fronts 912, 914, t1r or something else?
Nothing more than £45 per corner though

I have 914's and they seem pretty good, in 18" mind. £43 a corner on Camskill, would definitely go for them over the the Toyos

Should probably add its 195/50/15 and fast road use generally
Good to hear the 914s are alright, not sure what the difference between them and the 912s are

That price I posted was for that size. They're supposed to be a slight improvement over the 912's, better wet grip. If you look at the reviews on tyre reviews, they're rated very highly. Obviously not as many as some others but they haven't been out long.
Either those or RS2's would be my choice personally, I have both, one on each car and they're both excellent.

Rainsport 2s were £35 a piece for me in that size from Camskill.
They're much better than Toyos and the Falkens.
