tires a tire In my eyes
Im gonna have neg camber so its gonna wear uneaven so id rather keep replacing 150 tires than 300 a set.
Plus they will be fine in the dry, if its wet, i just take it steady
No tires make you crash into a ditch....just shit driving

tyres are tyres if your shit with r888's your gonna end upside your head
Cannot understand why ollie has to justify why hes bought these tyres its more obvious than grants wing

Well I know they're going to wear at a quicker rate due to the camber he'll probably be running, but with his car running 260bhp or more through the rear wheels I would have thought a decent tyre would have suited better, seen as though it is the only point of contact on the ground from the car.

It's not speed that kills, it's the sudden stop at the end.
Knowing Ollie, he'll drive within his, the cars and the tyres limits (although they will all be different)
My talent usually runs out moments before the grip of my tyres....

Less of the tire news and more of the pics with them around the alloys and on the car

id love to provide you with pics Teddy...but nothings changed at the mo, waiting for a few final Parts
As for the tire debate, i do agree that better tires would suit a best part of 300bhp rear wheel drive car,
but........
bar 888's what make of tire CAN handle that much power? i doubt there is much differance between these and yokos or toyos or falkens.
So were all right, but i dont drive particually fast in that car all the time, i certainlly dont go nailing round town at every opportunity (i have a car that will beat MOST things off the line and top end) and now ive sorted the poor handling it should fair better o the track (My standard rims with Yokos will be on for track work) so theres no need
Low and slow, Popping Chattering and Banging.......(but if im pushed im safe in the knowledge that No one on here can touch me yet should i give in a boot with the right foot
)As soon as the stuffs on Teddy you will be first for a pic sent direct to your phone

I had some 265-45-17 Avon Z somethings on my 200sx, cost a fortune, and the accelera budgets matty got me wer loads cheaper and gripped a lot more.
When you expecting to have most things fitted?

No Track, No 1/4 Mile, and I'll push.
