decent 245 35 18 tyres
Hi all
im after some tyres i need 245 35 18 has anyone used some this size or no of a good brand that make this size thanks |
Hi mate give sti Mayhew a pm on here mate, great service great prices he will look after you mate, I was there last Saturday for four new tyres, first time I've ever used him and now I don't think I will ever use anyone else.

I use 255/35 18's and have had 888's and now federal 595rsR's
888's where on the wheels when I got them and where great , couldn't afford them so went with federals and for 600miles I wish I'd found the extra money . Now they are very good and close to a 888 but not quit there but I can live with that at £100 a corner :) Federals avalible in a 245 :) |

Thanks £100 a corner sound good :-D Im putting them on 9.75 wheels do you think 255 will be better suited than 245 ? Also whats are they on you car ? |

What do you think on nakang ns2 ?
|
255 if it was me
Believe 9.75's |
A lot of people call them ditch finders. My mate ran them on his audi a4 and they wore out very quickly but it is a big heavy car, also a few guys run them on civic type r's also with bad reviews. If your looking at a budget type tyre I'd go asymetric as directional budgets seem to always go out of shape and wear unevenly.
|
not after a buget just read mixed reviews wondered i they where any good so would you recomend the federals is well
|
any other tyres that are what about toyo t1sport ?
|
just had a look at the federals they look good
|
After some miles you will like , just stuck with them :)
|
www.mytryres.co.uk is where I got mine
|
I take it your running wide arch kit to fit 255's ?
|
thats where i had a look at them on my tyres £97 all in free shipping. :-)
Yes abw kit Cant find many wheels 9.75 with et20 what are yours ? |

I'll go check size 9.5's 18's et20 |

|

|

I've been happy with my Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas. No tramlining and decent grip in wet and dry. Not sure they do your size, I run 235/40/18s on the T25, currently £109 from Mytyres.

I had also noticed after speaking with Demon tweaks that you might be able to get the Federal FZ-201 track tyres (these are fitted to the ring rental cars) and very sticky, slightly better wear rate than the 888s as well, and don't tend to go off when they get hot but they do have a 10 day lead time getting them into the UK.. The Federal 595's should be available off the shelf. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/oncirr...fed_f2-2d1.jpg hope that helps! :) There is also of course the new AD-08R from Yokohama.... ;) |
I assume those Federal FZ-201 are not road legal?
If Budgie can't tell the difference between 888's and NS-2R's, then the Nankangs are a bloody bargain. |
Think I was barking up the wrong tree for Russ, seems you cant get the FZ-201 in 35 profile at 18" :(
They are road legal Steve ;) the info on the description is not accurate I rang them and they confirmed all sizes selectable are orderable, as per Federals website. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/perfor...oad-track-tyre |
The NS-2R's on Soft will most likely be the next thing I stick on, either that or the FZ-201s
The 888s still have plenty of meat left on them atm ;) They are available in the size that Russ wants... http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/perfor...nex-ns-2r-tyre |
cool cheers guys so 120 is softer than the 180 is that correct ??
And im going for 18inch et20 9.5 is 255 still the best size ?? |
