I think the Michelin's will last longer too :happy2:

at the risk of sounding an idiot- thoughts on toyo proxes? I run these, IMO grip is good in dry weather :rolleye:

Was on Michelin Exaltos which lasted 20,000 miles on the front, but I am very happy with the Vredestein Sessantas and they are a massive improvement over the Exaltos overall.
Plus, they were only £85 each! I would definitely recommend them! :smiley:

great grip but are a softer compound and dont last too long if your a regular right footer.

I was offered a good deal on some Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta's when I bought the Pro race alloys and thought I'd take a punt at them. I was very pleasantly surprised at the amount of extra grip I had in both the wet and the dry over the Conti 2's and 3's I had before. They also faired very well in a survey last year against some of the bigger named tyres. I can't say what the wear is like at the moment as I've only had them for 700miles, but the tyre shop I bought them from rate them highly and said that they would likely last longer than my Conti's but not quite as long as Goodyears. However, for the price I got them for I couldn't refuse at the time. :happy2:
