There ok tyres..
Apparently there from falken.
They are a good bang for your buck.. tyre.. it would be proabably the only no name tyre i would buy.

When new they grip pretty awesome.. Pulled a 2:03 at ec with firenzas..

As they wear in there are ok.

thanks mate. got them for 160 each wasnt a bargin but i cbs barginin. in such hot days. anyone else had them b4?

[type one]

Mark form Donnellans told me they were out of the Bridgestone factory. Ehh who knows...

they ar enot high end tyres in any case, but i think you should get some good wear out of them.

How about you give them a squirt then do a review in the tyre thread??

wats the digits on the tyres...
XXX/XX/XX XX and a letter..
wats the letter.

for example: 205/45/16 95Z

205 - Width of tyre in millimetres
45 - Height of sidewall as a percentage of the width (45% of 205)
16 - Diameter of rims
95 - Load Rating
Z - Speed Rating

thats all it says..

I'd get the nail removed and the tyre patched. You don't want a blow out whilst driving (esp in the wet).
