I also agree that I people dont put much consideration into the quailty of tyres. everyone seems obsessed with high BHP figures, yet wonder why they get so much wheelspin when they run plastic tyres :thinking: :thinking:

Had Eagles, switched to Michelin PS4.... Much better all round tyre, the traction is in a different league to the F1s. I'd whole heartedly recommend over the Eagle F1's, but either would be a whole lot better than plastic tyres... :signLOL: I had a set on a while back when i borrowed some wheels whilst mine were being refurbed...... 80mph traction issues on a cold damp night coupled with feeling more like you're aqua-planing than being in contact with the road was enough to put me off ever buying them.

right thanks for the info Dan, not sure what these tyres cost but will definitely give them a look as I do need new tyres since my plastic tyres are absolutely rubbish for grip as I've come to learn this year driving around in the damn and did slip out a few months back and we discussed this with a few other members :happy2: :drinking:

I can understand you leaving the k04. For me it's a mod you do when everything else has been perfected. I've been a bit fixated with going k04 or k03 hybrid, but in all honesty it'd mean putting off other mods that'd go further towards making it a complete build.
Once I'm at that point - happy it can put the power down, happy it looks just how I want, and happy it's got all the little touches like a good stereo and tidy interior - then I'll keep my eye out for a turbo.
Never say never, but I can't blame you for prioritising other things.

Seriously AJP I've been put off from the idea totally as I feel s2+ will be more than enough for road use with wmi lowering temps I'd say I'll be smiling for a long time and you're right as for me I want my car looking spanking as it was before so not interested in this K04 anymore :doh: looking good is better than going fast :stupid: :signLOL:
