But why? When there are cheaper tyres out there that are rated higher than the newer F1 in respected tyre tests??

Seeing as it's being discussed, what are your qualifications Brad? Genuinely interested:)

I've always been a fan of F1's in the past, but give that they won't be around in RS size for much longer, I'd go for something else.

Blackcircles tend to be more expensive than mytyres, and camskill tend to be the cheapest available (and excellent service). I'd try hankook v12, better tyre imo than the f1 (and the f1 is being phased out).

I was under the impression that heel and toe was used to maintain drivetrain smoothness (to stop any unpredictable reaction from the car), and to allow you to brake/change gear as late as possible on corner entry.

What pressures are people running them on track? Not used them before, just after a starting point.

As above. He's the only guy I know of with plenty of experience playing with trophy suspension.

You'll struggle to get enough temp into the r888's IMO.

Well done, these are some of the most interesting threads on here.

Does nothing for me, Illiad or Mars please. Paul, are you colourblind?

Re: someph-ing different........... I can't wait to see your car once finished.

Unless it's Valuev in the background, there's something off with the perspective there.

Is that for real? They guy with the hatchback in the background looks very big?

All I can comment on re AST is my own experience. In total my car spent 6hrs at powerstation to try and resolve the car pulling to one side. I was then told (by Curtis) that my rear axle was bent. No doubt. Since having the car checked over at a local tyre centre using this equipment...

IIRC it was Lee.

I pm'd you!!!!

I am, I could fit that splitter as well ;)

Hylton in Worcester are a good bunch fella, only dealer I used more than once. And there's a stunner on reception.

Erm, no lol. H&R's, or KW V2's ride just as well as the Trophy set-up.

Decent coilovers is a better option. My 172 handles better (IMO) than my Trophy did.

I'd be up for that!

Go over show. Oh wait, GHD's.............;)

Aren't those wheels quite heavy? Something lighter would improve the ride.

I've owned 4x ph2's, now a ph1. The only ph2 I'd have over a good ph1 would be a trophy. The dash doesn't bother me, I genuinely barely look at the dash when driving.

Coming from 172 dampers with apex springs they were an improvment, but the kw are far better for me. I would of had the front springs changed and the dampers revalved if I had any faith in them, but wasn't worth the risk.

Your faith in a bunch of 'experts' that can't even align a Clio correctly amazes me. I appreciate that you've had a positive experience with them, but not everyone has, both in terms of quality and service.

If you actually care about handling/ride, you don't want to go too low. And you don't want AST's.

True, but an AA/RAC check is pretty comprehensive, and give's you some comeback. (Watch my car f**king blow up tomorrow!)

Samsung NV100 Some pics I've taken

Not a Renault one? That would explain the problem.
