themodifiedkid Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Ive just purchased the above tyres for the rears and will be fitting some time next week. My question is to those who have had experience with this tyre, I was wandering roughly how long these take to scrub in? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themodifiedkid Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 I did so much research when looking for rears and these came out on top so had to get them. Anything would be better than whats on there at the moment bloody Wanli's, there fooking dangerous on a bpu'd tt. Prob be ok for smaller engined cars but on the supe, slightest bit of boost or damp weather and the arse end was out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep these are the ones mate. That was the first thing that I checked when they turned up. And yes mine do have made in Germany on them which was a relief Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Restorer Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Got the GYA's on my M3. After 500miles I was getting wheel spin in all gears leaving the M6 toll but after another few hundred miles I've found them to be as good as I was expecting. May have taken me longer to wear them in as I'm not know for my flamboyant driving style. Got over 20k on my old F1's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Guess, i'll be trying these tyres next Also heard good things about Falken 452s and Vratestein (spelling) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonkin Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Asymetric or the GSD3''s mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Had these on for a year now done a few thousand Ks and not much noticable wear, as for performance they are in my opinion great, far better than the GSD3'S which wore quite fast, one thing I would recommend when you have them fitted is to get a wheel allignment done to make sure theyre planted properly.

StuartW Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Asymetric or the GSD3''s mate? gsd3's but would like to learn more about the asymetric's? I have ToyoR888's for track but have never tried them on the road, I heard they are rubbish in the wet. Any more thoughts:search: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andy_H Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Another fan of F1's here, got them on my current car and will be putting them on my supra when I get one, I found after about 1k they are scrubbed in good and proper, but I may be talking rubbish, and I have them on a light mgf so I guess a supra will be a lot faster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
