Damn, my reply is too late. ER30 is the OEM tyre on the Corolla Sportivo, and from driving my neighbour's Sportivo, ER30 rates very low on my opinion. How much cheaper is ER30 over the C.Drive? If you want cheaper than C.Drive, go Bridgestone RE001 Adrenalin. It's a higher performance tyre, but it will still be a bit quieter than the ER30.Quote:

Currently using:
Tyres: Goodyear GSD3 (205/50/R16)
Price: Just under $200 each
Review: Great in dry, but suffers in the wet. I have experienced wheelspin when taking off in the wet. Apparently there's two versions of this, made in Japan and made in Thailand. I got the Thailand ones because I didnt realize until I checked em later... :thumbdwn:
Also currently using:
Tyres: Yokohama Advan Sport V103 (225/45/R17)
Price: Just a tad over $300 each
Review: Top of the line Yoko tires that can be purchased in Australia. It is rated as "Y" to perform in excess of 300km/h. Performs great in wet and dry performance. Corners hard, will accelerate through corners with no problems whatsoever.
Also, im in the market for some new tyres in the size 205/60/R16. I got a quote today for some Yoko C.Drives for $189 each fitted and balance.
Can anyone tell me if this price is appropriate? Or if they would like to recommend something different altogether...
Thanks guys :)
Got Adrenalin RE001 fitted, finally all of them this morning, owner(bill) at the bridgstone dealer very nice guy and the boys at the place friendly, helpful. definitely give them a ring if you live close by.
Drive pretty hard on the way to work,
Initial impression,
- comfortable and fairly quiet.
- good response at corners.
- grip is good (dry)
it will probably takes couple days for the tyre to wear in properly.
thumbs up. :)
i've got adrenalin re001 at the front and maxxis ma-v1 at the rear. the bridgestones are pretty good, but i find that the grip of my maxxis rear tires is far superior to the bridgestones, as they're making me understeer when they're in the rear, and oversteer when theyre in the front. may try maxxis all around when it comes time for a tyre change.
i have to recommend the Toyo T1R as the first set i used (195/55 R15) were sweet as they lasted me about 40000 km inc 1 track day at willowbak in QLDjust got 2 new ones for the front (205/50 R15) as the old ones became semi slics lol the spring brook cruise helped with that, however with all new tyres u need towork them in to get the best grip and life out of them, so far so good.....
Guy I have a Jazz VTI-S with standard rim of 185/55/r15 and its time to change upgrade my tyres
