Which tyres on new rims

Hi All

Im looking for some feedback on what tyres to have fitted to my new BBS CV rims.

At the moment i am running some goodyear gsd'3 215/40/r17 on my MCS, S spoke alloys and rather than take the tyres off i was thinking of trying some new treads but not sure what to go for. My mcs is running about 220 bhp so need it to cope with the extra power????

I Was Thinking along the lines of :-

Falken FK452's
Yoko Parada spec 2
Yoko s-drive
Toyo T1-R Proxes
Toyo PX4 Proxes
Pirelli P Zero Nero
Or stick with some more goodyear or WHAT would you advise and what you are running!!!!!!!!!

Many thanks Justin

How long is a piece of string All will have there opinions, I managed to swap+Ģ70 my S spokes-there heavy- for Team Dynamics with Toyo Proxes 4's both just 2 months old, guy was PX car I think I got a very good deal and tyres are great.
I'd look at changing wheels in your situation.
