what tyres are on there again?
On the front Vredestein Sessanta ultrac's new ones.£90 each ex vat

Still have the rears to change (Dunlop Sportmax) as ive overspent this month with Car insurance years premium, alloys and 2 tyres has been costly.
Still have 6mm on the rears so will last till new year.
..........bang the ''old'' dunlops on the front & Sessanta on to the back.Should always do this with new rubber anyway.  :happy2:

How are the tyres?
1st impressions, lighter steering, quieter on the roads, but havent yet put the foot down due to precious load in boot on way back from Garage! :happy2:.

They look a very pretty Tire as tyres go :signLOL: Side wall design and edge protection is adequate.
will post later

Appreciate the feedback mate, I actually would love to see close up pics of the sidewalls and tread lol, cheers Phil :happy2:

The Vinyl Wrap on the B pillars are shiny underneath  :wink:

Black Mirror casings would be a good idea  :drinking:

Anyone want to swop their Black wing mirrors for Red ones :laugh: with optional Carbon wraps?
