fulda tyres?

[twisted]

hi all, just wondering if anyone has used or had experience with fulda tyres? I need to replace my rears fairly soon, and the guy was trying to sell me a set in 205/55/16 for a r32. It is a daily driver and clocks up a few km's, so i need a certain level of durability, but good grip levels. Currently running toyo tpg's, but not particuarly impressed with grip or wear. Did a search but come up with nothing.

cheers for anyones input.

It all depends on how you drive........how many klms did you get out of your toyo's?

If you get bugger all klms out of your tyres then you might as well buy cheap ones. If you are "nice" on your tyres then buy the best things you can afford.

Sorry but i have heard very little about the performance of FULDA'S

fulda are probably the worst tyres out there at 205 seems rather skinny. Get some Falken's of any type which are almost as cheap but better.

I'll second sewid !!

I just got a set of Falken ZE512's and so far they seem great ( not using them on the track either ). Good price too if you shop around.

Don't get Fulda's, i managed to crack the inside sidewall of both rear tyres (255 18's) all the way around the tyres and they were only about 3 months old. I know they are cheap crap but that's just dangerous.

cheers for the replys boys.

I drive the the thing how it is meant to be driven. Saying that i mean i like to get the power to the ground (mere 165rwkw, still stock turbo), and throw the thing round in the twisty stuff, but i still expect more than around 17000km. Am i expecting too much? Also expect them to grip once warmed up, not break into spin on gear changes. Went 225/50/16 before chasing grip, but made the car feel like a boat around corners on the stock 6.5" rims.

Will do some chasing round tomorrow and see what i can find.

I go the 205's on the stockies too. Don't go sava's either, delaminate very prematurely.

Thanks for the input. Decided to go for Hankook K104's, as there had been a bit of positive feedback in other threads (in 205/55/16). They are going on today. Will let you know how they hold up.
