What tyres?
« on: November 06, 2011, 12:22:49 pm »
Hi I'm looking to replace all four tyres on my mini and I want a set of tyres with good grip. Car is used for road driving with one or two track days. size 205/40/17. I have read a few reviews online but wondered what 'real' people thought. Any advice fellas  :happy2:

If you are brave get Kumho KU36 or Toyo R1-R. Good track performance,
but not the best on wet/cold.

I guess in this dimension not all types I would recommend for a GTI are
available. if you could find them: Pirelli P Zero and Michelin PS/PS2. If not
go for P Zero Nero or Exalto PE2.
