[Cuppy 172]

Thinking of getting these on the cup, any comments on performance, durability etc

Any suggestions would be much appreciated

 

[Tom]

i have met someone who rates them

they will post here soon

 

[Cuppy 172]

Come on guys/girls I need your advice

 

[Paul Freemantle]

I have them on the standard 16s and they were execelent

most tyres are good in the dry but these are brilliant in the wet. (have heard stories that others namely toyos being shocking in the wet. please dont burn me for that bit) only had them on for three month and had very little tyre wear.

Had 17s put on and shelved the 16s but they are going back on this weekend ready for the winter.

The 17s came with some shockingly crap champerio front carrys on going forward when turning in the wet.

Very good tyre.

Also worth looking at are Toyo T1-S Proxes & Goodyear Eagle F1s.

I have got them on my valver and rate them, given your average british weather I always go for a wet pattern. Just make sure you have good tread on arse end, I got caught in the wet, and with not much tread on rear, lift off oversteer in wet is scary, scary, scary, I ended up backwards through a fence at 80, but the rainsports are damn good, without being too much of a compromise in dry, seem to wear quite well also

Rainsport 1s it is then, thanks guys

 

[weight]

ok they are very good! infact probably the best wet tyre you can buy!

but.........................

you might want to have a look at these first! not as good in the wet but in the dry! OMFG!

VREDESTEIN SPORTRAC 2, cheap as chips and will destroy the uniroyals in the dry! but not the wet!
