Sorry Motor used a Typhoon for their tests.

Don't want to derail, but does anyone have Nankang NS2s or heard much about them? I'm looking at 235/35R19 for $220 - $250 per tyre. I really want a tyre that's going to do at least 50 000km, is quieter than the stock dunlops and good all rounder in wet and dry... I have a T (naturally )

50,000kms that's ambitious

I have been through 1 set of Hancook 245x40x19 and 1 set of Fedrals 245x35x19 in UNDER 20000kms!!!!!!! I dont even get time to rotate them!! they seem to scrub out on the front just as quick as they do on the back, CRAP

[ The SP3000s weren't worn out - I think that I would have got at least 60,000 km from them.

Good effort I got 15,000 and my rears are Gooooonneee

Of course, 15,000klms, got nothing to do with the amount of skids you do.....

Hehe, I have to be good!!

EDIT: Just another question, probably stupid, but will I be able to fit 235/35/19 on stock suspension without rubbing the guards?

I paid $150 each for my F1's

Good price. 17s made in Australia?

Wouldn't have a foggie, 17's they are

Yes.

I tried the F1's and on my car they were absoluting shocking, was happy to have got rid of them, running a cheap Chinese Tyre (Wan Li) modeled on the HSV GTO tread pattern and they are giving me probably 50% more grip over the F1's, of course this is based on my driving patterns.

you must be kidding me mate!!! Wan LI

that's the worse tyres been made mate!! have you drove them in the wet???

my mate use to have it on his stock XR6 side way every where (in the wet) mate that's drving normal and with out trying use to surprice him 99% of the time they are dangerous. In a T with Wan Li you are ready to take your life and others with you mate.
