[lawrence]

anyone rate avon tyres the zv3 range? i need 2 new ones for my cup theyve only done 6000 miles cant believe how quick theyve gone

 

[night.icon]

i rate them as being sh*t,

i had 4 changed as thay went miss shaped on the side wall and avon tried to send me a bill for half the cost of the replacements

 

[lawrence]

oh right any ideas as to what i should i put on i was thinking of rainsports

yoko a539s

 

[lawrence]

they aint that great the old yokos imo, had em on a mini and werent up to much,

 

[JAMESSRICH]

i thought they where ok

had them on the front of my ax gt

got them all-roung on the valver - feel really good

a bidr form work had them on the front of her cup and she rated them really good

Yuck yokos

ive used those Yokos on a 205 GTI and thought they were pretty good, as for the Avons i didnt think they made them in 195s, thought 205 was the smallest they did

plus according to the tyre test sites, the Avons arnt rated that much compared to the Goodyears which come out best overall

I had a set of avon ZZ1 on my 205 gti, pretty good in the dry but possibly the worst wet tyre ever concieved by mankind, as soon as the heavens opened be it slight drizzle or the welcome note of the biggest storm ever to grace britain it all went sh*t.

But the i put some pilot exaltos on and i was really happy

Then i crashed a month later and i was really sad

But im getting a valver on saturady

rainsports Very good in the wet, thus rainsport

Not the best in the dry tho

Theres good deals on pilots at costco,

well i run the A539s on the willy and the valverno complaints yet

 

[Le_Smithier]

As far as he willys and the valvers are concerned, most people ive heard of tend to go for the A539 or the Exalto 1, but thats just what ive heard.

Potenzas crop up in tyre discussions aswell but i dont know much about them
