^^^^ what he says!

 You have obviously spent thousands on your car to get it to 350bhp but you are willing to undo all that work with the aforementioned tyres. With that power, you will have no hope keeping it planted. I hope you have some decent handling mods and a BBK as they may be required.

From Tyre Shopper Online.

Cant go far wrong with GY F1 2's or Dunlop Sport Maxx IMHO. Both £360 a pair!   :happy2:

I think these budget tyres should be renamed as follows:

1) Achilles Heel ATR sport

2) Accelera(te into a ditch) Phi

I ran the ATR on my civic type r. Grip was good in the dry but poor in the wet. Hard wearing tyres but do give a bit of road noise!

I chose them as they were £100 cheaper per corner then the Bridgestones and never caused me a problem.
