made in germany - just been for a blast and its much better now its dry and warmer! think I'll get the wheels alligned and take it from there - adapted my pressures too much happier with the balance.
Well I mean they're always listed as summer tyres, rather than all weather tyres but yeh they should be able to be used all year round just like any tyre.
It's 3 degrees outside - I'm going for a play :)
Maybe I'm asking too much of a more summer orientated tyre in winter? I do nights so it tends to be always -1 or something like that when I go to work and get home!
f**k it I'll make a decision in the summer! The thing thats pissing me off the most is the skipping on near to full lock - I...
This is what I don't get, they've always served me well but these are total poo lol, I'm going to swap back over the weekend to the ph2's and see how I get on.
I might aswell be in a 1.2 with budgets on for all the fun I can have with it at the moment :(
Since I swapped from the ph2 alloys to my refurbed turinis the car is rubbish!
I've had GSD3's on my last 3 cars and always rated them so I was happy to find these turinis with them already on 6mm tread all round..

When the cars flat it doesn't leak - at work we have a slightly dipped car park so the car faces downwards, if I park it upwards it...
Hardly fill mine up but it doesn't tend to get dirty enough to need to use it! The missus' fiesta one is tiny, that gets filled up often! The 172 and the willy's seems to last for ages.
Re: Question about R888's, and what does 88W mean on the tyre, and coilover question
I want to try 888's on the missus fiesta - It's sometimes much more fun than the 172!
Stand your ground if thats what you really want, its what THEY want you do to so don't give in to make it easier on them, at least the car sounds fairly legit now but I'd still get my money back or demand compensation of some sort for the incovenience.
