I note the use of Triangle Talon Sport TR918s-I used these and liked them, especially at £168 fitted for 4!!

Car looks great-enjoy!

My experience of the Triangle Talon Sport tyres is that they improved things massively over the Federals that were on there and stopped the tramlining, were 100x better than Wanlis and felt like mid-range tyres at such a cheap price.

I did not run them long enough to make a full decision on them, as the car was sold, but initial impressions were very good.

They displace standing water well, but do not like greasy surfaces much.

I had federals on the front of mine on the old alloys and it used to tramline terribly .... so far on the same road it feels a lot better with the new wheels/tyres  :y

the really suit it i must say, they've got that sort of proffesional look that i always think is the best look for the omegas :)

i would space out the rears a little bit though
but looks brilliant
