Initial ally posted this in wants section in error !

Saffy now running near perfect

Running as FWD and do not know if I shall ever get round to sorting the inevitable angle gear

Tyres not far off depth limit so time to spend yet more $

She is currently running on a mix of 215 and 225 / 45 !

I love P Zeros but 9000 miles and chucking away the fronts is ludicrous

Had Mich Primacys on my 850 T5 and very impressed until they want out of shape with lots of tread still on them

AST has suggested Mich cross climates

Any other views greatly appreciated

Cheers Cooks how the devil are you ?

After your mammoth resto project have you managed to invest in new tyres and if yes what did you go for ?

I'm well thanks, hope you're the same. I went with Goodyear EfficientGrips as that's what suited my budget best at the time. Nowadays I'd probably go for Pilot Sport 4s or stick to the EfficientGrip Performance.

Goodyear eagle assy 5 getting good reviews as well as the Pilots, not sure what I will go with but struggling to find anybody decent to refurbish the alloys
