Volkswagen mk2 golf gti heavily modified Tyres

based on what i am about to type many of you will think i am a maniac , but this proves just how good these BUDGET TYRES really are .i had these on a modified mk2 golf gti . they were great fun with loads of grip in all conditions right until a blind old lady t boned me . i was speeding excesivly about 120mph , she was doing about 60mph , i saw her at the last second simply cross the junction without stopping . even at 120 i was able to swerve out ( under full control ) and allow her to hit my passenger door ( rather than me hit her driver door ) therefore preventing a double fatality . basically you cant just write off a tyre because you have lost traction , there are other factors that create grip , my golf had coil over suspension (increase in road holding) , strut braces ( increase in road holding) ,a front splitter and rear spoiler ( these increase down force making the car stick to the road better ) . when the car was coupled with 4 nankangs it stuck like glue . also to get full benefit from tyres you need a matched set , with even wear , and the correct presures . as well if you are going to drive fast into corners expect to slide , then it wont be a shock if it does happen and you can take a countering mesure . on a final note the tyres are so good that i have taken the time to source a set to go on my current vehicle .

Great in the dry but rubbish in the wet, aquaplanes as soon as it starts raining. For the price, i would rather put a budget on my car and have a better wet grip and less dry grip.
