  1. Read the sticky about mixing tyres and make your own mind up. I wouldn’t mix tyres at all given a preference.
  2. A lot of people feel that their next car has to be an upgrade in some way: faster, more powerful, more exclusive etc. Sometimes all you need is something different, and that’s enough. I went from a VXR220 to the 350Z, by the book that’s a step down but I just wanted something I’d never tried before. I went from the 911 to the 645, again a step down but it was so different it was brilliant. Now I’m in an MX5 NC and it might just be the second best car I’ve ever owned, behind the Porker.
  3. Who knows what next year will bring mate, must admit it would be good to catch up with you lot again

    Tyre wear

    Yes, get a proper alignment. And check you’ve not snapped a spring that side too.
  5. But why? And would it be that big power, considering what a decent manual TT costs these days now?
  6. He’s been saying it for years. It’s nonsense stuff just to keep interest in the brand.
  7. They’ve been saying that for the last five years. It’s ain’t gonna happen. Well, the GT-R will. But the Zed is dead.
  8. Get someone who can actually do an alignment would be my advice. Both of those after measurements are a mile out, no reason they shouldn’t be equal either side if you’ve had new parts put on tbh. Also bear in mind that every road in the UK cambers slightly to the left anyway for drainage purposes, you can test this by driving on the other side of the road and letting go, see if the car drifts right then.
  9. I’ve not tried the F1SS, but the previous gen F1s were awful in the wet on an Impreza going from RE070 semi slicks to them, which surprised the hell out of me. Went back to the 070s really quickly after that! FWIW I’ve not had any issues on the MPS4 all weekend in soggy Wales, and that was on a hoon when they were being pushed and are 12000 miles old. Stunning things.
  10. ^^^ This. But get MPS4, not the older MPSS.
  11. This thread is utterly painful to read.
  12. Standard cats will do the job.

    I don’t like P Zeroes personally, they’re okay tyres but the price you pay I’d rather have the PS4S. Run the sizes in a tyre calculator and just keep within the standard ratio difference and you’ll be fine. I run PS4 on my car and they’re lovely, but the 4S are definitely better.

    Tyre help please

    Did you call? 4S on 19”, do they not do either size in them? What are the options? On mobile so it’s a pain to check myself.
  17. ^^^ Basically all of that.
  18. It only says Mich until I see a tyre in the flesh...
  19. The Michelin’s aren’t expensive when you take into account the wear rates of them, they work out cheaper in the long run.
