Can't edit the previous post.Nitto Invos are the tyres I have on all four corners now.Put up some pics of your car too. Any plans to mod your car?

Def prefer the goodyears; but not cheap (but im gussing those re003 aren't either).There will be a million different opinions/preferences on tyre choice...but this thread is about a specific tyre so hopefully it doesn't derail too badly and someone on here can offer their opinion on the one your asking about! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad's on his second set of re002 and I've driven it and it's not turbo but corners great and just feels good. Low noise aswell. Gonna find some prices the next couple days and probly end up with re003. Then I'll post up some feelings about them. Hopefully I'll have some front and rear camber adjustment going on as well when I get the tyres. And just to respond about the car. Yes always plan for mods although basically stock so far. Mod EVERYTHING haha. I'll start a thread on the car though anyway and sort some pics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sucks. Na I'm in NSW on the coast. Bridgestone has a 4 for 3 sale on so about 800 fitted and alignment till the end of April. I wanted to pay and wait for them but tyres won't last that long. As for info on the tyres which I started the thread about apparently they are out performing their current s001 so sound good but I guess I'll find out later on haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box stock T. Member 1,384 Member For: 9y 17d Posted 10/04/15 07:55 AM Share Posted 10/04/15 07:55 AM I had a pair of Bridgestone re001's on the rear of my bf f6 a couple of years ago. I found them to really good tyres really sticky on launches but still let go just enough to have fun with. Mine was a six manual. In adelaide they were around $430 a tyre. But I suppose you get what you pay for. I hope this helps you in some way good luck tyres can be a hit and miss thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def prefer the goodyears; but not cheap (but im gussing those re003 aren't eitherThe AD08R is really made for a combination Street and Circuit tyre. Excellent tyre. But you will need to get them warm. It doesn't surprise me you spin them on the street especially if it's cold. I run the Hankook RS3. Same thing. They are struggling on the street in the colder weather. However something like the invo is not even in the same league as the AD08R on a circuit. They are really made to be a track tyre you can drive on the street with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
