Don't get RE92s, they're absolute rubbish.

I used to piss myself driving on them in the wet at any speed, I thought I was gonna die at any given bend in the road. And yes, I drove them from near-new (just after they'd been worn in) up until they became unroadworthy, and well, they were unroadworthy right from the start. Don't get them.

Yeah all the fleet vehicles that we do we put on Dunlop Monza 200 from Bridgestone RE92 as all the fleet companies hated those tyres.

Yoko C-drives are supposed to be good, never tried them myself though. I'm currently running Federal FD1's they aren't too bad at all. Dunlop's aren't too bad either but I wouldn't touch RE92's for anything other than burnouts. Likewise with Sava, Ceat and Federal 657's. Just about anything you've ever seen fitted to a taxi is not something you want to run on your personal vehicle IMHO.

I got some Pirelli P6000 for $115 per tyre ($460 set) .
I had Bridgestone RE-92's previously big difference,well worth the few extra bucks....
