Benjy Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 *goes to sob in the corner* I want some Jade R's dammit! Think my mate's running 453's on his ST Focus. I'll ask him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjy Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 OK - so the Vreds seem to top the list. Is anybody running the new FK453s, just out of interest? - - - Updated - - - How does yours ride on the 20s?? Better than you'd imagine. I think it's better than on my 18's mate. 225/40/18 on the front and 255/35/18 on the rear and even on T1R's it was skittish. It handles nicely, and still steps out if provoked. Is like it's on rails and it's no more crashy, even lowered 40mm Literally had the arches rolled and that's it. No spacers, nothing. Although you could probably space the fronts out by 5mm to avoid scrubbage on the arch liners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus GTE Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2's are great in the dry and wet. Have them on my spare wheels and miss them over my larger less grippy Yokohama S-lines that I'm currently running on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be curious to see what mine looked like with your wheels on though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 Always get my Vredesteins from here: http://www.tyremen.co.uk/ Cheers for all the info guys - have ordered the Vredesteins from here, getting them fitted Friday am. See how they fare against the Falkens - not too dissimiliar in price either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Well hopefully you'll not be disappointed. Need to order a pair of 275 rears myself in the next few weeks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
