Yeah, I had researched the wear rate numbers which is why I was surprised.

Getting 2 x GY Asym2 fully fitted from a mate for £220 tomorrow.

Looked a reviews between these and PS3 and there wasnt much in them except price £250 for the PS3 fitted and £220 for the Asym2.

Tyre review in Februarys EVO magazine results after various tests (Road handling, Dry Handling, Braking distance, Aquaplaning, Wet handling, test were done using both an Audi S3 and Golf GTI (Quite apt really for us guys!), Tyres tested were 235/40/18y

1. Continental Contisportcontact 3
2. Hankook Ventus S1 Evo
3. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2
4. Michelin Pilot Sport 3
5. Pirelli P Zero
6. Bridgestone S001
7. Dunlop Sport Maxx GT
8. Vredestein Ultrac Cento
9. Kumho Ecsta KU39
10. Accelera Phi

Overall the contis almost had a clean sweep, only missed out on top spot on road handling, If it were my car it would be wearing Toyo T1R's, its a shame the review did not include them as it would have been nice to see where they came as I been using them for 6 years and love em!

Changed the fronts a couple of days ago. After reading many threads on here i plumbed for ............... Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric  2. Only spent a few days with them but a huge improvement over previous rubber, lot less noise and more grip (may be placebo). :happy2:
