Hi all to answer a few questions, yes it is a GTI and I'm running Pilot Sport 3 Tyres (i'm not about to put Michelin PSS on as I've only just put a brand new set of boots on all round).
At the moment I'm more concerned about the understeer in the dry on road, although I ideally want a good wet weather set up, again I'm not expecting the same handling as a quattro but I naturally want the best I can out of the GTI.
Thanks for all the useful advice. As the thread shows although you can search for this info, sometimes there are so many different opinions and options it becomes mind boggling, it doesnt hurt to hope for a definitive answer! Now I know there isnt one, I can start adding the handling mods...one by one...Again!!!
The modding never ends does it
Thanks all and any further advice from experience is welcome..
