just got a set of these for my 15's this morning, and i must say even only driving home i immediately felt how good they are. They grip to the road very well big difference from the re92's that were on before these.

WhiteVS. congratulations on making the move to the good side of the force :) don't forget to help out the haters from the tags, maybe even drive them home as you come across them in the ditches around Vic

Can they make some for you if you supply the tyres? what size did you want?. Also if you dont mind paying for the transport you can get any size you want from bigtyre in Toowwoooomba, proper race spec ones

No they are remoulds, they check the case, cut down the top and side and stick them in a new tyre mould

Get in the ute
here's mine.. i find they run out of traction when they get to about 2-3mm treadski.

other than that - i still reckon they're the best value for money tyre going.

you can see just how sticky they get - all that dust and dirt and crap sticking to them is from when i pulled into the driveway!

note the soft 'peely' action they get going on once softened up.
