what rubber to get....
« on: April 18, 2013, 01:51:24 am »
right guys! i'm after new rubber for my wheels, they're 18" by 8.5 wide, i want some stretch on them OR a nice low profile... can both be achieved? And thus far i'm torn between; Continental, Pirelli, Michelin and TOYO. i don't know very much about tyres, i've read through on the search section and it seems that almost every application requires a different set up! currently i'm on H&R coil-overs as well. help would be really appreciated  :smiley:

I rate the Toyo T1r's very highly.. great on the dry, great in the wet... good all rounder... Filled with Nitro.
If it's not broke, Mod it.....



Silver is the way !
