Kuhmo's seem very tempting for the price.
Hancook RS2 are only £95 for the rears and £84 for the front in 205/45/16 fitment which are again very tempting for the price at £358 for 4.
Cars going in for service on the 24th Feb so will see how much lotus want for new tyres, think I'd better sit down when they tell me as I'm sure they won't be the cheapest
Too many options, which one 2 go 4.

Shug drove my car at Knockhill on Hankooks and said.... "that's like driving on marbles!" I've only tried them and Advans so can't really comment other than to say the Advans are a bit better lol

Looking like my choices are now going to be either kuhmo V70 or toyo R888. Kuhmo, will have to go for the 205/45/16 and are cheaper whereas toyo are standard fitment.

Does anyone know if the R1-R is 5mm depth the same as the others, or maybe more?
