I don't trust the tires I am currently running really, the tread is OK and Michelin is a decent brand but they came with the used Enkei wheels I bought, so I will buy new tires soon.
...
cheers
The Michelin PS3 are actually pretty good. Maybe because yours are pass 4 years old the rubber compound have harden and now giving you less traction and comfort. The new PS4 do have in your size if you are thinking of upgrading the tyres. Quite a few choices for you like Bridgestone RE-003 also but PS4 are the latest....:driver:
If got budget, no need to think and just go for the PS4!

Poison......:driver:
To be honest, I don't have an unlimited budget, if I did I would be driving something like an EVO7, Impreza or maybe a 350Z or BRZ/GT86 :driver:

So I will be be getting something more mid-range performance orientated tires when I change, don't care much about road noise, the exhaust will probably be louder that that anyway :biggrin:

cheers

fuu..better not to get any poison from brake...hows their workmanship? interested into getting evo6/7 set 4p/2p not in near future..:bawling:
They do everything in-house. So workmanship is very good and they torque wrench everything. No air pressure gun locking down any bolt with these guys. I like this part about them.

Incidentally - I have a APRacing 5000 R caliper and PCD100 x 4 2 piece rotor at home if you're interested.... :biggrin:

Price difference between PS3 & PS4 no so much I think , so not worth it to get PS3 anymore if PS4 is available for the same size. But yeah I totally agree, don't go to mid range tires. If budget more limited then at least go with value for money UHP tires like the Hankook V12 Evo2.

hi, so first I would like to apologize to all my friends from this forum, have been very busy and not had much time for my Lancer for a while, but finally got some time and have done a brake upgrade, using some Subaru 4 pot calipers and disks

Lexus was supposed to bring out the next version of its LF-A supercar at the Tokyo Motor Show just gone. Sadly, it didn’t happen, and the question is why?

Rumblings from inside Toyota suggest that some key engineers have actually been pulled off the program to deal with other tasks as Toyota’s global drive continues.

The idea of building both V-10 and V-8 gas-electric hybrid versions must also be causing a few sleepness...
