Have had them for about 1k now and can say that they are awesome! The grip is just amazing. Would buy again.

Getting my PSS soon as well. A little worried as everything else is stock - including the wheels. Worried that the ride may be more wallowy.

Need more low!

Glad to hear they're good. One of the first things you need to do for our cars is to get rid of the crap tyres.

And did you do a before and after 0-100 prior to putting the stripes on? Surely they're worth an extra 1/10th

In all seriousness they look kinda cool

Actually, they act as a visual distraction and help slow down your competition so it feels like you're actually going faster!

Additionally, they decrease aerodynamic drag and increase air flow into my intake. I reckon i got about an extra 10kw easy!
