BTW - when You fit those tyres when new did they squek quite loud on slow parking turns ? In semi-sclick area I had onece Nankang NS2r (softer one 120 not 180 TW as current Ns2r are) ) and dont remember soo much squek (bu, it was "normal" not open car as Westfield ) Meantime Ive just hunted around set of nice looking 13 4x108 5,5J (yes) rims with seems to be properET , just need to pait it black cheap, so hope in the future will try again 13 but this time with narrower and std not semislick tyres (sht like 165-175 front 175-185 rear maybe ?) . Should be more unsprung weight reduction and less rolling resistance. Under skin I feel this car need narrower than mine current 195-205 tyres. Those look good , but for some reason production cars with much more weight has narrower tyres. Well, Caterham 170 (less power but propably more torque amd similar weight wears narrow 13 tyres. No squeak at all from my new front R888R. Quote
mega ade Posted Tuesday at 19:54 Posted Tuesday at 19:54 Nor mine only the rears but thats probably to do with my lead right foot Quote
Andrzej Posted Tuesday at 20:17 Posted Tuesday at 20:17 Those A 052 semed to be really sticky, got small stones glued to tyres and throwed up like stone rain almost like on warm/hot slicks, and never on road regular tyres. Hm. Quote
