My 350z tyre review:
Many of you have tried quite a few tyres, many thinks for all the info you have all contributed. Sure helped me choose my tyres.
So far I’ve seen the older Falken tyre reviewed here, so here are my thoughts on the newer 510’s.
New:
Falken FK510
Standard sizes 245/45 rear and 225/45 front.Great tyre, great price. As everyone has already said, they are far better for the UK climate. Grip and handling is up nicely and road noise is a little down too. They feel more predictable and if I give too much throttle they don’t make the traction control kick in as much.
Old (when I bought the car):
Standard Bridgestone Potenza’s on the rear
Nokian ZLine on the frontYeap, same as everyone here, Bridgestone’s suuuuuck. Only good when it’s warm, +15 Degrees Celcius. But yes the upside is low wear, my half worn tyres lasted over a year about 12-15k miles. Nokian’s, well I must say they were pretty impressive. I think it may be due to the fact that Nokian make amazing winter tyres and the compound is more suited to UK, I prefer them over the Bridgestone’s too, but not the Falken's. If I were to buy a winter tyre I would look no further than Nokian, probably WR A4.
That’s my 2p J Cheers All

Soooo I thought I knew how to wash a car, but as I read here I'm bit of a noob
Reading through Dave's guide to a Simple guide to car detailing, I will buy some of those products and get going on a good wash.
Could I get some advice on where Meguiars Ultimate Compound fits into things?
I have a 2004 model and the paint looked a tad dull with some circular scuffing, so I bought the compound to restore the paint.
Recently I had my car washed by Lellars, and she looked great. Today I went down to the Shell near me and did a quick wash with the pressure hose and brush, but I missed big patches and the brush didn't quite get it 100% clean and now she looks like shyte... So as I mentioned, gonna go with the forums advice and do it myself with good ol elbow grease Just some help with the compound would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

What timing, last week I noticed the same issue.
Bit of a design flaw as the metal does not curl back on itself, letting all that dirt gather. Newer cars have the curl...
I stopped by J E Drury (Codicote area, not far from Stevenage) and they also said it would be around £350. Gonna get it done in a week or two.
