also
according to the site they only have 205/50 in 15's but they also said the site is for international use and can be slightly inaccurate
anyway
they said they would call me back in 30 mins
but i fell asleep coz of australia vs croatia
but KU15 seems to be a very good street tyre
according to some sites
its like advan ad07 level
thaks man...
btw everyone...would like to pass on the dunlop direzza st tyres I have on the front of my teg - have now gone off...well they aren't coping very well with my exedy HD clutch lol...compared to normal daikin clutch....
Wheelspin 1st/2nd if I rev off the line....and if the road is wet, just wheel spinning...fine once your moving though...
I think I'll have to see if they can get sport maxx in my size when I have to change next year lol.
Direzza is not really top notch stuff. The GIII would be much better than Direzza.
well they were the replacement for my dunlop fm901s....prefer the fm901s...still have them on the back.... do have g111 on track rims - okQuote:

from my experience
g3 and dz101 i think are on the same-ish level
however with the g3, the grip levels improve as the tyre wears
where as the dz's grip will decrease after its worn out
also, spunky monkey
if you have a set of rims for track why use g3's?
g3's are really bad for track use
exp coz they dont take heat very well
how about falken azenis rt615 , i read some good review about it. big improvement over the old skool rt215.
yes I thought they were on the same level too. but yes, my direzzas seem to have gone a bit off - well they can't cope with a bit extra grip from clutch.Quote:

i have Regal tyres lol. they are from ian diffen and they are meant to be made by dunlop in south africa specially for ian diffen. i cant remember the specific model name of them but they r 205/45/16 and they seem to have good grip in the wet and dry. i havent even really heard them squeal or have them lose grip in the wet b4... then again my car is pretty weak. but i used to have 205/40/17 nexen tyres and one bridgestone haha. the nexens seem to lose grip in the wet quite a bit.
anyone know if the xenon z1 tyres from bob jane are any good?
