try these tyres with 400 + kw in a ute haahah you would think you have space savers on the back :/

Side note, the tyre shop put these on at about 40PSI which is what I had in the old tyres. Topped up today to get them all the same. I was worried they were 32PSI or something because of the softer ride and awesome grip but no! Just good value.

Rang up today to order new tyres for the taxi and was told that YHI Australia aren't supplying the Neutons any more. I had been using Neuton NT5000 tyres for the last few years and NT8000 for the last lot (YHI stopped importing NT5000s a while ago).

This meant deciding on which tyre to use from now on. My XR6 Turbo ute has a set of Achillies ATR Sport tyres on it, which give surprisingly good grip. But web reviews are generally critical of that model of tyre.

Saw the above post, did some web searching and decided to order a set. They're being fitted tomorrow, so will see how they go. My priority is traction and braking in wet conditions.

Where did you get them from for $119 each?

I have the original ATR Sport on at the moment, now that the car has a bit more power they will be coming off. Traction is non existent when taking off, especially at the top of first to second. May have to upgrade my wheels as well now though to get some fatter rubber on the rear.
