Tyres, any recommendations?

PS4 tyres fitted to mine, amazing grip in the dry and wet. Wear pretty well too. PS4S are another step up again, only 19” up though, replace the old super sports which were immense!

 

PS4's all the way. Great all round tyre
with exceptional traction.

 

Vredesteins

 

Absolutley highly recommend avon zz5 .they are an incredible tyre and epic all rounder. Used them on a trackday in varying conditions and where faultless.
Very resonable price also

 

Hankook Noble S2 great tyre.

No one tried Goodyear Asymetric 3's?

 

I've got Asymmetric 2s and they are very good.

 

in these crap all year round rain conditions.
.you cant go to far wrong with Rainsport 3`s,if you are on a budget.
My mate has them on his 360hp integra turbo ,and they cope..

 

Rainsport 3's are megga in the wet, good on dry roads, but get overheated quite quickly on a dry race track.

 

They didn't score well in the Evo tyre test. I put assy 2s on my 182 and they were really soft, felt a bit sloppy (different car I know -)

 

absolutely..but seeing as it fkn rains almost everyday in this country..they are not a bad shout.

 

Neither are Federal 595RS-r's in the wet, as long as there is a good amount of tread

 

think he wants a road tyre mate..hes not looking for track work.
£79 inc vat, 235 tyre for rainsport 3`s

 

i hated them on the front of my R26(assy 2`s)..no turn in.
they where ok on the back,but a couple of times snap over steered when stone cold.

 

I run them on the road nearly all the time now, the only time is if it is absolutely pissing down and on a wet track

 

Fair enough. I have had them on a few fast Fords and I have to say I loved them. Good handling etc but also loved the fact they were super quiet!

 

i have goodyear eagle f1`s on my wifes swift sport,and they are brilliant on that particular car.

 

Wheres them prices from buddy. Ive got somesrandom shite on the front (double blow out in the middle of nowhere) 120 quid each. But hey he had me by the short and curlys so had no choice lol

quality control seems non-existent on these `lesser` brands.
my mates federal rsr`s tread came off in big strips!

 

I have had at least 5 sets of 595 RS-r's not had a problem with them breaking up

 

Well he certainly did!
the tread was peeling away from the carcass after 1 track day..
looked like someone had gone at them with a sharp knife.

This was when they first came on the scene..
Had trouble getting refunded..but they did in the end.

 

25 quid each more than the rainsport..100 notes extra.
I would go with the Yokohamas at £114 each if you are going premium.

 

well the side wall stiffness will be lesser than a pure sports tyre,so dont expect class leading grip in the dry.
they are excellent though in the fkn awful UK constant wet weather,that seems to have been non stop since xmas!

 

certainly a nice waste of money..i hate it when i have to bin a expensive tyre with loads of tread left.

 

PS4s for me and confirmed by many on here and also this recent review on evo, http://www.evo.co.uk/volkswagen/golf-gti/18309/best-car-tyres-evo-performance-tyre-test/page/0/6

 

I also had 3 Kumho fail on the sidewall on my MPS, needless to say id sooner put ditch finders on than that shit ever again

 

Get some vorti's @Gavin.

 

Anyone else finding ps4 wear rate terrible... After 3000 miles down to 5mm and that is very very sensible driving..

 

wearing even across the tread?

 

Yep 5mm right the way across... There again the original ps2 only lasted 15k..

 

conti 5p`s only lasted 6k on my R26!
