    Maybe because you had Rainsports on a better handling car....... :)

    Have used Rainsport 3's on my last 4 cars, ( Celica gen7, 350Z, Lexus is300h F- sport and still got them on our Lancer Sportback)

    Have found them faultless in the damp and  very wet conditions.

    Admittedly there is no direct comparison here as the 370 has not a set of Uniroyals on it.

    I am totally happy with the MPS4S on the 370, just an opinion that the RS3's to me have the edge in one particular area of grip, ( which is needed up here) they aren't as good in the dry.

    My car is a daily by the way, it gets used in all conditions of weather.

  2. At great risk of being shot by Ekona here lol.

     

    Ok, after months of driving with new MPS4s all round I though I would report back how I find them.

    Great tyre in the dry, but as I live in sunny ( not) Scotland where it is wet conditions about 75% of the time, I am now of a mind set that

    having Uniroyal RS3's on my cars over the past few years that the Uniroyals are better suited for our climate up here.

    Wet grip is way better on Uniroyal RS3's  than the MPS4s . The MPS4s are superb in the dry by the way.

    This is merely my opinion from experience of both these tyres. Based on wet grip alone not on value for money or wear rate or dry grip.

    As stated its wet most of the time here so horses for courses probably.

  3. As Ekona said really, if you are running OEM from the y pipe back it aint going to get quieter with any after market kit I wouldn't think.

    If you need it quieter get someone to put extra resonators on the system , that should turn it down a bit.

    Same for if your y pipe back is after market.

  4. As title says , so sourced wheel and brace kit off Zmanalex and fitted in this morning.

    Spacers going on wheels at weekend  to make sure it all works.

    Kept the foam crap as well just in case. From This.

  5. Just fitted  a sprint booster to mine last week, just to make the throttle response much quicker as it suits how I drive better.

    Does what it says on the tin really.

    Had a D1 spec controller on my 350 when I had it and it did the same thing.

    Bit pricey for what it does mind you.
