New tyres.

Recommended Posts

Back in June we had 2 new rears fitted, fronts were worn but ok for MOT, since then the car has felt really vague on the front, almost unnerving. Had 2 new fronts fitted this week and everything is back to normal, didn't realise tyre wear would make so much difference.

BTW tyres are Uniroyal Rainsport 1.

Fit some proper tyres and you'll be amazed.... :p

 

Seriously, tyres are probably the most important thing on any car, let alone a big GT car. It's the one thing above all else that I always make sure I've got money ready for. When I got my N/A, it had Pirelli things on it and they were slidey as hell. I changed them for Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's which were highly rated on here and the handling was way better, but still slippy in the wet. I'm now running Toyo T1-R's and the level of grip is fantastic - I've to really give it some, even in the wet, to get them to slide.
