Tyres for cup with 19inch steevs

  1. Alright chaps

    Relatively new to the site and recently got my 250 cup which came with the factory option 19s

    I'd have preferred the 18s (I like a bit of rubber to cushion new from these crappy B roads) but chose the car due to spec and low mileage.

    Anyway, previous owner has fitted kumho ecsta le sport tyres all round. Now I'm not bashing them but I'd say they aren't ideal, when they're due for replacement what would be better suited? Feel the car tram lines a bit, found this with my clio and it was down to cheaply tyres.

    All the lower joints are fine, now play or knocking, just don't get good feedback with these tyres when giving it beans
     
  2. Basically michelin

    ps2 or pss for fast road - pss seems the evolution of the ps2 not sure what sizes they do in 19s though
    ps cup 2 as above if track use aswell, apparently you get a fair amount of road noise with them

    I would avoid the Cup's unless they are for track. Not the nicest of tyres for Road use, Especially in the UK.

    PSS's are basically a road going version of the Cup, Brilliant tyre.
     
  4. cup tyres for only road use makes no sense and is a complete waste of money
