   its between Falken ZE912 or Toyo t1r's. Would get toyos but ive been reading that they wear down quick.
   
   just after decent wet/dry everyday road tyres which wont wear silly quick. (nothing too hard on the wallet too like goodyears or michelins ) any thoughts?

   they won't wear quickly - but how quick tyres wear will depend on how you drive with them

   I've got ze912's on my pug and they are very good for the price.
   
   I know a couple of people using them on other sporty cars, everybody seems to be pretty happy.
