Tyres you use(d) and how u would rate them

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

I was the surprised the fronts held up so well, didn't feel like they were going to give up anytime soon

I was driving the car pretty hard as well, didn't really understeer anywhere. It just did what I wanted it to do

here we go, spun out after the straight LOL

The nitto invos are a great tyre they put my 336rwkw to the ground nicely

Got my Hankook Z222 on the evo yesterday. They are not overly noisey and they didn't make the steering feel as twitchy as it felt with the dunlop SP MAXX that were on it and they did make my steering feel a lil heavier and made turn in a little more progressive.

Havent tested them out in the twisties yet though. Hopefully tonight

I gave the RSR's a good run again on the weekend, still not bad for the price! They obviously are cheap tyres but when you drive them at their limit they handle it well! Nice and quiet too...

yh true i have RSR 255/35/18 good in the wet can launch at 3500 with my few killerwasps and it grabs instantly.

This tyre test is interesting. It shows braking from 100km/h dry and wet.

Down the bottom there are some real shockers but the mid-range performers seem good value.

dude try michelin ps3 or even bridgestone re001 andrenalin. I can almost drive the same way as i do when its dry.

I wish i could...

Finally gave the Z222 Hankooks a workout yesterday and I can say they are the grippiest tyres I have ever used. Pretty impressed and happy for the $$$

straight line braking in wet or dry is not a good indicator or lateral grip (corners) nor how they 'feel' or how they grip once traction has been broken and then in regaining traction...

Nonetheless, still meaningful statistics

Bridgestone potanzas re240s street slicks

Dry 10/10 once you get heat into them

Wet 3/10 just for normal driving

i rate these types 10/10 for price as im a true believer that you get what you pay for

I plan on trying bridgestone RE11S's when my track car is complete so ill have to see how they go

[RBN1]

"Potanza RE240s" ? Was wondering what these were. You might want to take another look at your tyre sidewall markings

Unless you're referring to the old Potenza RE540s (semi-comps, not slicks), which I believe are long discontinued?

I used Tirerack to get my Michelins due to the fact Michelin Australia cant be bothered bringing 265/35/18 into Australia

Once i sent my money i received my tyres in 5business days too my door!!!

Michelin Australia arnt bringing every size into the country, this is reflected on their website

Doesn't seem to be a whole lot of posts on here lately.

I have Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec that i have had on my 33 for the past 18 months or so. I haven't really tried many tyres so i cannot really rate them outta 10 but I am well happy with them. I am glad I spent the $$ and bought some good tyres. Alot better than previous KU31.

I know a few others bought the same tyres from tirerack.com. Any other opinions on these tyres ?

Anyone got a hook up for Hankook RS3?

Want to run a 275 35 18 and RSR dont have that size... (Currently RSR all round but keen to give something else a shot!)

[SiR_RB]

[Mick_o]

Best price I got was through jax tyres (believe it or not) Prospeed?? I think up the coast go through em a fair bit too give them a try Matt
