try some decent tyres, and you'll go faster before understeer.

if you get no understeer, not trying hard enough Wink

LOL

That's so true. Basically they are terrible tires and the grip is only average at best and the wear time on them minimal.

I ran them on mine at Bedford Autodrome in the wet, they were bloody lethal, 2nd gear wheel spin, terminal understeer etc etc - they over heat very very quickly

Honestly, im on my 3rd set of T1rs and they are brilliant. My friend uses them buffed in a road going class at Harewood hillclimb and has set the record there.
Usually , there is something else wrong if a brand new set of tyres feels terrible after the bedding in period.... Poor balancing, warped wheel, tracking, pressures, toe, camber, caster etc etc

My 6 on t1rs, is amazing in the dry with NO UNDERSTEER and its 4 wheel drifting in the wet with controllable lift off oversteer.....Search my profile posts for more info. Ive JUST put a new set of T1rs on my 6.....They are very good, especially for 37 pounds each!

32 psi allraound with a slight increase in wear on the near side rear due to roundabout playtime


You know how you think that you are able to go around roundabouts fast with those on....
Well you aren't actually, You should try my car then you will find that I can basically turn as tight as I want.

Four wheel drift = no grip at all.

It remind me of when i first got my car and it had "Austone" tyres.

bladddddyyyy hell they were dodgy, and camber on a roundabout at decent pace and they would lift of oversteer but without the lift off....

Have to disagree there.

Loved ps2s also when on the rallye and 6.

But the 205 and my 309 didn't like them
