Best tyres for 3MPS's

[LYNCHY]

lynchy how many km's have your rt615's done so far? might be getting them for my next set but if the wear isnt that great i might pass

Think i might see 15000km just .....but the grip is so amazing

[240MPS]

Lynchy I wouldn't be braging with that unless your smoking them up, the new Yoko's AD08 are good for 20 -25,000 and i'm not happy with those figures for the price, yeh there good for track use too but I might stick with the best Bridgestone I think...

[Nexus]

Kumho KU-36 look set to give 20,000K. More will be a bonus if they manage it.
Potenza and Sumitomo HTRZ-III both gave 28,000 max, but the sumi were very consistent throughout their life, while the potenzas sucked after 30% wear.

Same treatment all round.

Id have to agree.. I went for an agro natio run yesterday in the pouring rain and they stuck like to a blanket

I was just saying I wouldn't be to pleased with that mileage Lynchy, your riding on the wrong bridgestones if you think there poo...... If Brocky said they were good they were good . 28 years of driving I'd say i tried a few and I keep going back to bridgestones but when something new comes out I'd like to look into it..... Like the new Yoko's AD08...

[STEALTH_MPS]

thats wat im tossing up between, the RT615's or the AD08's.

[240MPS]

Talking to guys who sell the A048 for the V8 Utes very similiar priced them today $520 each tyre or the AD08 215/45/18 prices from $370 to $440 and 225/40/18 were $480...

[STEALTH_MPS]

240MPS are you still on stock rims or aftermarket? wouldnt 235/40 be alot cheaper?

[240MPS]

I bought Troy's (2XS) 18 x 8 Lenso's Type M with +46 offset... I was considering 235/40/18

You will probably pick the RT615's up for cheaper .....What about the KU336's

[Spud]

I have a set of standard size (215/45R18) Pirelli P-Zero Rosso. I think they pretty good, very quiet compared to the 050's and grip levels are excellent too.

I got them for $350 ea fitted earlier this year.

I just fitted my 2nd set of P-Zero Rosso, the 1st set lasted 55,000km. Got the 2nd set for $1000 all up (inc fitting, balance and alignment) through my lease!!

[Yarrus]

Best tires r Yokohama AD08!Bridgestone is rubbish!

[240MPS]

I'm looking at the AD08 for one set for the road and looking at the A048 semi slicks for the track on the other rims, they look good and the write ups some good to... I wouldn't say Bridgestones are rubbish I have excellent results with mine...

[Yarrus]

I use Yokohama AVS 103 and some guys use Toyo 888 for tracks.Toyo is cheap and good.

[YOU LOSE]

Has anyone tried running a 245/45 tyre on a 8" wide rim on the front of a MPS3?

YES im running them on the rear ,tried tham on the front they don,t leagally fit width wise and they rub on both the front and back wheel arches lock to lock on mps gen 1 also affect the speedo .

yokohama ADVAN Neova for the win !!!

available in 215/45/18 this will shit on just about every other non Rcomp tyre out there and give better wear to boot. mine have been going for 10,000 so far wear rate is awesome more than half the life left in this tire, and i haven't even been very nice to them.

NO TYRE DEALER IN CAIRNS HAS EVEN HEARD OF THESE !!!!
are u sure they are not Rspec ,i run yokahama S DRIVE and they are brilliant but would like to try the NEOVA i may have to bring them up from bris ,they look the goods thanks for the info

these are Rspec but they are Not RComp so no issues about heat cycles or any of that other guff.

you can get these tyres from Yokohama Motorsport Dealers, the main one for queensland is Albion tyres and more in brisbane.

if u have S drives these will be like a whole new level of grip !

[eck0]

Heath, do you experience tram lining with the AD07's?

I do and it's kinda annoying
