250gb xbox and GTA should be delivered today :D.
Only ordered one because of this after having a quick go on my brother xbox. Then it cost me 200 sheets lol.
Plenty of choice out there. Never ran Bridgestones myself, they never particularly interest me enough to try them.
Vredestein are great value for money, my personal favourite is Pzero Neros. There performance in wet or dry is epic, just had 4 put on my gsi and they just as good as I remember...
I'll dig my slips out, think the quickest I ever got from my 182 was around 14.2-5. That was pretty much standard aswell with full interior etc and normal road tyres.
195/45/16 is what size you need.
Slightly over budget but something like these will be fantastic.

If you have budgets all round though I would recommend buying 4 or at least running the 2 new ones on the back and having the cheap ones on the front.
If you want a decent grippy tyre that will still last quite a while and take some abuse from time to time then you should look at the Kumhos. They are a decent hard wearing tyre.
I run EBC Redstuff and Brembo Max grooved discs on the road and its awesome.
Never had any issues yet and my car gets a proper hammering and does a lot of miles. They bit from cold nicely and once they have a bit of heat in them they are fantastic. I would happily buy them again no problem at all.
Dry grip on the roads will be better from the RSR but the other 2 will out perform them slightly in the wet. Like you say though on track the RSR should perform better and last longer too.
Winter months are approaching us though so depends how much you will use the car then too as I would...
You only need to go for RSX though if your wanting to go lower than 25mm surely? They are still 28 point adjustable which means nothing to most people anyway.
Mine sat perfect on 195/50/15s on the PSX kit.
I ran them on mine for a year and a bit and they have been great. The rears needed replaced under warranty after around 30,000 miles but this was no issue, got in touch with Spax and a new set of rears were on my doorstep within a week. Can't complain about that!
For what they cost I think...
Awesome write up! Hoping to try get out there next year if some mates will actually do it.
That steward done you a favour though, they looked shite lol.
Got psx kit myself on 15s running 195/50/15s and sits perfectly. Wouldn't have it any lower.
I'll dig a few photos out for you if i get 5.
Been great the kit, not too uncomfortable, and adjustment works well. Rear shockers needed changed under warranty after nearly 30k road miles which was no...
lol at letting you use launch control, what a guy! When I took my 182 for test drive, the salesman gave zero fcks. Was doing 3 figures in it no problem lol.
Just keep an eye on the price over the next 2 weeks and when you ring up too buy that all the details are correct.
Sounds like a good drop though.
But lol at paying £3k. I'd sooner hop to my destination.
Seems a good price, only down side to companies like them are they don't really approve of mods lol. Obviously if its standard then not an issue.
Just sorted insurance on the girlfriends new abarth last night, £425, shes 20 with 2 ncb and im 22 with 3 points lol. Cheap as chips new cars!
I imagine a048s will be a fair bit gripper in the dry but they are the next league above ns2rs really. These are more comparable to the likes of AD08, R1R, RSR etc.
My fronts on the road lasted around 8000 miles of abuse and even just about on the markers they were still very grippy. I would...
