does any1 have any good tyre websites where i can get them cheaper.
i got a quote of 90 for the front and 130 for the rear not plus fitting so if i can get them cheaper that would be nice.
cheers

sorry,they do slide.

this might sound odd...but after 500 miles the tyre feels grippier

Bloody hell mate, looks like the sides are worn more than the middle!

this section of the forum is excellent because im able to 'log' the performance of this particular type of tyre and the pictures help jog my memory.
at this stage i reckon the tyres are scrubbed in for maximum grip.theyre giving me lots of feeback and confidence.
when i renew the rubber (dunlops next) i wanna be able to compare rubber.
thanks bridgestone,great stuff

Yeah, thats what my tyre looked like after going round the Nurburg ring. Hero tyres, respect!
