Bridgestones S-03!!! Bloody Fantastic tyres!!!! They're real aggressive in wet and in dry. The feel is great, response and all! Very Very predictable tyres and they go where you tell them to go.
Much better than the Goodyear F1/G3's. Although not as long to last, well worth every $ spent if you like performance. They're quiet tyres too with very low noise.
Only other tyre that compares or rather i would like to try are the Pirelli Zero Nero.
Oh by the way.. all the dunlop performance tyres are Sh*t as.
really? what makes you say that? :DQuote:

a bit dangerous to make a general statement like that without some facts to back it up, huh?
Well thats my opinion. And i was referring to those you ca get at the shops, not the special ones that you order or use for racing.
But in general, I still think they're crap - the whole Dunlop range. You don't see them on any F1 cars.
i dont think you know what you are talking about dude..Quote:

no offence, but each manufacturer may have good or bad tyres. and not all tyres are interchangable e.g. i talked to a guy from bridgestone before and he said the NSX runs well only on the OEM tyre, if you put another tyre on it it upsets the balance or something
so again, you're entitled to what you like or don't like. you may have had a bad experience with dunlops hence you feel so strongly about them. but other people may have had a different experience with them and may not feel the same way
QED?
nsx oem tyres : yokohama ao22
nsx R oem tyres : bridgestone re070
I had falken ZE-326
NEVER BUY THEM. They were litarally made the car a deathtrap on wheels... though they never wear, I got rid of them fearing for my safety but I had about 5000km on them and they looked EXACTLY the same as when I got them.
Wet grip was horrible.
I use Kumho 712 now and they seem quite grippy. They are the best tyre I have had but I heard a lot of bad comments about them (grip wise). Any comments about them?
Next I will be getting Goodyead Eagle F1. Friend has them and reckons they are unbelievable
Bridgestone Turanza ER592 - $110ea. Great tyres!! I just got 2 for the front and they offer great grip, they're very quiet, haven't yet tried them in the wet. They're not the best looking tyre around, but I didn't want to pay for performance tyres which only last 20,000km. These should give me a good 50,000km at a minimum. I can't get my EG VTi to understeer with these tyres... I'm not brave enough.
Be warned, they're not performance tyres. But I can handle having slightly less grip in exchange for low noise and long life. I can't wait to try them out on a track day.
I'll adjust this review in a little while to let you know how they're going as they wear.
