Controversial... what rubber you thinking of using ?

 

[Pav]

i would go for something else for sure Chris..more you try more you know...

 

[James17]

I use Yokohama AD08R all year round and love them, just warm them up a bit haha

 

[Stubonez]

The Dunlop sport maxx are pretty epic tyres!

Lovely looking car and great build thread. Watching closely for your remap results and feedback

I'm running these - https://www.4x4tyres.co.uk/215-45-1...v6tDfJTTHLvuqbjffoB3FaRW4zg5WZYl3PhoC_2rw_wcB

Great in the wet, and in the dry there is no wheelspin whatsoever, even putting 285 lb/ft through them. Cant recommend them enough.

Yeah, they were amazing on track, guy in the n/a 200 that I got into a little race with thought I was on slicks as he couldn't touch me through sector 2 and he was on ad08r's

They might be my next tyres mate.

 

[Pav]

they look great..do you use them as a daily too??any good in wet??

yeah they're still on the car now, mainly because I'm too lazy to switch back to my standard 197 wheels, but also because I prefer the look of the cup racer speedlines. It's been pissing rain here for the last week and they've been fine, no squeaky-bum moments of understeer etc and the back is still planted, bit of wheelspin but that's more due to my right foot

You won't be disappointed, although the price seems to have gone up a little - I only paid £68 per tyre for mine in 215 45 17.

Going to give them a go in time need a second set of wheels

 

[Chris]

Thanks Sean - well I won't be far off that torque so happy days

 

[sevenfourate]

I was already considering the Kuhmo's for my next rubber. And they look awesome. So glad to hear they work well on Clio's with nearly 100bhp more than mine !

Seems there's hardly any really bad rubber available at the semi to top-end these days....

 

[Chris]

They don't actually do them in my size - 205/45. But 215s will be alright.


Was also considering Michelin PS4s

 

[peter]

PS4's will be more comfortable, more durable, better in the wet and less noisier than the kumho's.
unless you're doing trackdays regularly, i wouldnt bother with the kumho's, chris.

 

[Big Ben]

How much PS4's though? Probably double
