Good shop to get tyres mounted near the city?

Direzza Z1 star specs, 225/255.
They were a little greasy at first, but once i'd scrubbed them up and warmed them on some corners, they started hooking onto the road like crazy. To be honest i'm a little scared of pushing them to the limit on the road, is at a level now where it needs to be on a track without oncoming vehicles.
So happy with them, as far as noise goes, I'd say they're similar to the RE050's, i heard the michelins are quiet, will be interested to hear your opinion.

I was soooo close to getting the Z1's. Love the look of the tread pattern. Was swayed by all the great reviews on the Super Sports.

Either way - you can't lose though. Both far superior to the RFT's.

Trying to order the M3 sway bar now : )

Procede to follow after my scheduled service on June 8th

Cool, good luck with it, i got the H&R front and rear sways, really great improvement to handling.

The Z1's do look tough, looking from behind my car with my head about 40cm off the ground, the wheels are meaty.

Hey, howz the Z1's traction in the wet ?

they seem pretty good, though it's hard to test them out too much, i'd say better traction than the RE050's for sure.
