I'd personally have a pop at the Vreds. Rated them better than the Eagle F1 Assyms i had previous

No complaints here from my vreds, a very good tyre imo. Would definitely buy them again.

+ another one for the Ultrac Sessantas.

Had 3 sets now and can't fault them, as said shame the price has gone from £75 to £100 since the first set.

Whats the wear like on the Vreds? i always trusted falken FK's on my A4quattro but on 2wd :driver: sh*tty pants time!!!

tried toyo's but they wear real quickly :ashamed: yeah, yeah, I need to drive a little slower and stop the wheels spinning! :P

I was looking at getting a set of Eagle F1 Assy's but they're salty prices at the mo too! £110 each i think was the best local and £105 or so from camskil???

saying that, all rubber is quite expensive but which is gonna give the edge on wet/ dry grip over wear????

Seems quite a heavy vote for Vreds. Are PS2 worth the extra 15quid or so a corner?
