anyone know what the best tyre between wanli, falken and road-stone would be ? i was told by the tyre guy that wanli would be the better of the three. i have never heard of it myself until today but have heard some cars like Ferrari's, Aston martins and AMG Mercedes come factory standard with them. it could be a load of bullshit though. any suggestions would be great. thanks.________________________________________ peugeot 306 1.4 |

Wanli on an AMG merc..... I smell Farmyard!All are cheap tyres, out of the three id say Falken, however, don't scrimp on tyres as shit ones ruin the handling on a 6 dead easy. Budget for some more spends and get some decent rubber. ________________________________________ 1999 Astor Grey GTi-6 OEM+ (now gone...)2004 Aegean Blue 206 GTi 180 (also gone...) 2006 Skoda Fabia vRS in Sprint Yellow honestly3k wrote: Do you wrestle for a living matt?

Ferrari work closely with Pirelli on tyres, so I'd be surprised to find wanli as their stock supplier. 5 minute google for "Wanli Tyres" pretty much sums it up... avoid. Falken's aren't a bad make really. ________________________________________ Ph1 306 GTi 6 | RX8 231 S1 | YBR 125 Cafe Racer | MT-03 660 |

Better than Toyo's all day long and for the price cannot be beaten, even good on a 205 which is very tyre dependant.To get any better your looking at Michelin, Bridgestone etc ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |

Must get my ditch finders of the back of mine. They are over 7 years old and still have some tread left but they are horrendous in the wet. I was joining the m25 from the m3 the other week on a tight right hand slip road - wasn't even going that quick and I almost lost the back end - felt like I was on ice. A very squeaky bum moment. ________________________________________ Team Peugeot Sport 308 Gti�Black T'99 Gti - may she rest in peace - written off in a shunt on the A329m |
