Sure, they gave it back in 20 minutes, but did you notice that it was a na lancer coupe they gave you back? Your car is in melbourne now, and white.

According to the link ST115 has treadwear rate 360. which is higher than a lot of other tyres.

If you want to get Bridgestone So3s in Adelaide, give the guys at Bridgestone (city store) a call. They offfer great discount to SDU, SVD club members. I was quoted about $200 (just under I think)each for 235s

Heres a link that might help you get exactly the sort of properties in a tyre that you are after. I never noticed all this stuff on my tires till i saw this site and checked

My GTS-4 already grips hard with slick tyres, so im looking forword to some serious g-forces!!

Nice price too for Pirellis... $231.50 per tyre fitted and balanced.

I've got 235/45 17, and 255/40 17. They show little wear even after track days at Eastern Creek. Very good in the wet as well.

$1044 fitted and balanced.

Wow, where the hell did you get them that cheaply from!? I was considering getting the Falken ST115's which are around that price, but if I can get the FM901's for that I would seriously consider it. My only issue would be that aren't the FM901's discontinued? That would mean that when I had to change my rears, I wouldn't be able to get the same tread pattern as the front. Not a big issue I know, but I like my tyres to match

Out of interest does anyone know how the FM901's compare with the ST115's? With regards to grip, tread wear, wet weather handling, etc. I assume the ST115's are quieter, which is one of their big selling points.

I've had a number of different tyres on my car in teh 2 1/2 years I've had my car...  IMO, best bang for your buck tyres are the Falken Azenis ST115's... They're slightly more grippy than the FM901's, and slightly cheaper... On the downside, they don't last _quite_ as long... But still have a reasonably good life... I got almost a year out of the ones on the back of my car

Holy crap, my question answered even before I asked it
