Tyre Recommendations?

Post by **Gayno** » Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:50 pm

What tyres would people recommend?

I'm currently running Falken FK452's all round, but the inner edge has worn due to camber, so thinking of changing before going to Le Mans in June.

I've been impressed with them, but have found under extreme braking (at Racewars) they lock up very easily, so I'm maybe looking for something a bit more grippy. I've run Toyo T1-Rs before, but they wear quite quickly.

Michelin Pilot Sport 3, as used as standard on cars such as the Ferrari 458 Italia

apparantly they are the balls.

next on the list after my Goodyear Eagle F1's run out.

I have Fedrel RSR. They are reasonably priced plus they are super sticky when it's hot and dry.

Yep same boat since I put the rain sports on it's a total different drive plus they are bit better on price compared to some that I reckon wouldn't do much better than these!

Tyres are THE most important part of the car!

Buy the best you can afford. I have Continental Sport Contacts, but anything from the leading manufacturers at the £120 price range is gonna be pretty much the same. Grip is on a different planet than ones at £80
