If you want great traction in wet, go Fulda excelros :)

care to list them harry?!

[blue_rolla]

haha dylan!!

yeah he's got a point though - ive heard great reports about toyo tyres... very good brand... ive never had em, ive got sumatomos on my car, and they perform well, but i dont have much to compare them to (the three sets of tyres ive truly 'tested' have been stock tyres, my sumatomos, and my dads pirellis)

[KaZe-]

ADVAN A048

215/45-17 - RRP:$850

$850 each of course

Stretch your budget a little further (about the $170-$180) and you'll have a 3 times longer list to choose from.

Kuhmo's or Hankooks are around that price. The Kuhmo's are highly recommended by some fellow TOCAU members here.

phoaw!! but i guess you pay premium for "R" spec tyres.. what about Advan Neova AD07? anyone knows where to get them? i know Shao and Weiwei had/has them. (sorry to hijack this thread)..

Damn, you can get Dunlop D01J or DZ02G for half that money.

From all the tyres I have used on my car, C.Drive > Stock.

C. Drive is good with corners, has a pretty stiff sidewall compared to the Turanzas but traction is only average (especially when cold), i guess it is a harder compund so it lasts longer. It is quiter than most tyres though so for highway driving the C. Drive is great. But it will set people back close to $200 each.

btw i just noticed that the C. Drive is not in the pinned tyre lists!

Toyo Proxes T1R's are great. I have them up front and the turanzas just don't compare to these.

toyo t1r's are great but don't expect long life from them. Yokies in the C drive and A drive are pretty expensive about 270 each. As for the Fulda's they are German made by bridgestone rev spec factory and are pretty good value for money at @190 each for 215/40/17. I have these on my car and over my last tyres(Goodyear F1's) are way better in every aspect(wet,dry cornering and braking).

So watch out Harry....... :P
