michelin pilot sport cups, dunlop do1j's, avon tech r, yoko ao48's anyone tried tested these to the limits and beyond

thanks in advance steve

 

Tried them all apart from the Avons. Pirelli do the P-zero Corsa as well.

A048 is nice, looks very spunky.

Dunlop Supersport race were actually the best though according to Steve Scott and a race driver Friend of mine Niki Faulkner.

But if it was me I'd get the new Dunlop D02. It looks as good as the Yoki 48 does, and if it works as well as the Supersport race then its going to be the bollox!

 

lee dont give to much away to this dodgy geezer ,all us poor boys need all the advantages we can get ,all we can only afford the cheap tyres what everybody throws away

hahah Sierra is going to be wearing A048's when it hits the road next week!

You DON'T want to be driving very fast through any standing water with these though.

 

michelin pilot sport cups bruce used these with great succcccessssss

 

Think he preferred the Pirelli Corsas that SOME FOOKING LOWLIFE stole though didn't he?

They certainly looked better....

 

SCC's Rob is running those Yoko thingies and seems impressed with them

After being in the passenger seat at the Beds meet I have to admit to being quite impressed with the grip as well

 

048r's ae v good!

 

yes lee i think he did... but shame to say he never really had a lot of use from em

 

Steve,

Rob's Focus is running Yokohama Parada.

They are a fantastic tyre, but very different from the A048 range!

 

I'll second that, a very good tyre but I also found these scary with standing water

 

standing water...... if my westie thinks there is water within a 100 mile radius it goes dangerous on its A048s!

Watty had dunlop formula Rs on his evo - worked amazingly well in dry too - maybe better in wet than yokos but hard to tell as the car drove itself anyway lol

 

No wonder Watty was so quick round Croft!

I knew he could pedal, but that must be his little secret

 

thanks everyone looks like it gonna be the yokes can get them cheaper than the dunlops as well

 

And also what the Lemon will be sporting

 

Guys,what road mileage can you realistically expect to get out of these tyres I've heard people say they wear out v quickly,is this true,which ones are better for wear dunlops or a048's,it's the only thing putting me off at the mo
cheers
Mat

 

If your bothered about wear rates fit normal tyres.....

 

True, but I dont want to have to pay 130 quid a tyre and it last 2000 miles!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am interested in the extra grip they provide but not at all costs!
