That is a very nice power. Still very driveable too.

Please tell us the car came with those Nankanks on and you did not put them on lol.

Try some of my Federal RS-R's :)

I bought the wheels and tyres second hand off somebody on the MLR. I'm sure the advert said the tyres were something else but when they turned up they had the Nankangs on, which I wasn't very happy about. They didn't stay on for very long as like you say they are really cr@p and after the remap the car was a bit of a handful with them on.
I've now got a set of Rota DPT/Fighters with Yokohama Advan sports on which so far seem pretty good. The rear arches had to be rolled though as the 245's were slightly rubbing when going over any bumps at speed.

Once I get some 356mm 8 pot K sports for the front in the new year, so I don't have to use spacers with the Rota G Forces, they might get refurbished and have some decent rubber put on them.

Eddy what sort of price are we looking at for 245-35-18 Federal RS-R's?

Placed my order with APT for a set of 356mm front and 330mm rear K Sports with EBC blue stuff pads. Can't wait for them to arrive and be fitted.
I've also got to get the car booked into Supreme again as last time home some one decided to reverse into the front of the car and very slightly pushed the front bumper in. It gave me an excuse to get a carbon front splitter which will be fitted when the bumper is sorted.
Just got a text from the wife saying that my harness bar I ordered has just arrived so plenty of things to do when I get home.

You'll love the K-Sports Tony. The balanced set up will blow you mind with the braking power. They'll certainly test your tyres grip!
