Rear end boogie I'm pretty comfortable with but understeer...nah 29 minutes ago, BAXRTUTE said: Hankook ventus rs3 305/30/19 $340 awesome tyres Now you're talking Edited 25/10/17 12:10 PM by camo86T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jabtronic Member 70 Member For: 11y 9m 29d Posted 26/10/17 06:07 AM Share Posted 26/10/17 06:07 AM ATR2 pretty good in the dry but not so good in the wet. But for the price they can't be beat and they last a long long time before they either wear or start to fall apart. I'm running Michelin Pilot Sport 4 on the front and Achilles ATR2 on the rear. Only because PS4 rears are $390ea compared to $145ea for the ATR2. The Pilot Sports are an awesome tyre, I had them on my previous wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
