I'm sure they were more than adequate for a pansi in a capri

Yes, they are great on 4 cyclinder light weight cars - that's why I recommended them. But pansy... them's fightin' words negro

I'll have to give the kumhomos a go once i'm done with the federals...mmm...

further comments:

RE001s are probably a great tyre, but would be much more expensive yeah?

KU36s will probably wear pretty fast, since they are pretending to be a semi slick

I heard the KU36 last around 20000km so thats out of the question. RE001s are freaking exp. Got a friend that just got them for around 290 per tyre fitted + they use some fancy gas to make it lighter (nitrogen maybe?). RE050As are close to 400 each fitted.

Tas: I believe KU36 can be compared to Evos if not RSR. Very good reviews from users on the forum.

All these prices are for 215/45/17s.

Two track days on a GTR is my bet

I guy at the last track day had them on his track spec WRX. Could'nt stop cursing about what a rubbish tyre they were and how they should never have been sold to him as a semi slick. My humble pintara was quicker than him

He said they'd be going off for the next track day, so there you go, 1 track day on a WRX

Not very light if you asked me. The spec sheet says close to 1.3tonne... only 200kg light than mine.

[Beelzebub89]

1.3 tonne on 215s :S Dayum. my SS have got close to 20k kms on them now and no sign of wear. I think I'm losing my mind though because everytime I look at the car I swear there is more neg camber on the front. Paranoia because I did all the camber arms myself keep thinking I've f**ked something up lol.

Fair call, they're probably more than adequate for the VW too.

But you're still a pansy

Damn i'd be happy with 20k out of ANY tire. I'd expect more like 10 out of KU36s

Tas: I believe KU36 can be compared to Evos if not RSR. Very good reviews from users on the forum.

I think the Evos compare to the KU31 actually and the RSR compares to KU36.

Both RSR and KU36 are soft road tyres being called semi slicks by dodgy marketing departments

My pintara weighs sh*tloads more than that and it was rocking 215s for ages

it sells tyres bitch lol. But yeah I wouldn't put rsrs or ku36s on a beetle. overkill.

Where from? what about 215/45 and 235/40 in 17?

how much for 18/265

My pintara ways sh*tloads more than that and it was rocking 215s for ages

True shit. 215s just seem like such a tiny tyre lol. I spose its no worse than the 2.5 tonne falcodores with their 235/245 ling longs on em.

Place out on the bay. I reckon if we all went there to buy the toyo's we wanted, they'd do us a deal dispite being different size's

they must be heavier now - last i saw they were 1130, which is 100 more than the capri.

but still - i usually think in terms of a falcon being 1.7 tonnes... i consider that to be a heavy car (without getting into utes and crap) so 400k less is a pretty big difference... but either way

[Brandon]

I think you must be stupid to do that. I cant justify the wearing on such a car. I want something that'll last for 40000km!

The stock tyres are 195/55/16 if you're interested in knowing. Its around 1250kg to make it even more accurate.

The threads on mine still look good after around 5000km. Hopefully it'll last me another 20000km... hahaha.

i have nankangs on the GTR, so bad, do not get

that said they still managed a 1.7 sec 60ft
