Mmmm... what about us peeps with 15" wheels? I've just about killed my 2nd set of 15" S02's now, what should I replace them with?

Well after way to much reading and deliberation on this subject and thanks the BoostII for sending me the Evo tyre test report, I've decided to go for the Goodyear F1 GSD3.


Anyone out there with Pirelli's should watch out as they came way last in the wet handling



EDITED to say that I've just bought 4 x S02 LOL

OOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAA HHHHHHH

nice one mark!

Lets be fair who drives 110% all the time?
Me thinks you missed the point! It's when you're in an emergency situation and need 100% balanced handling that you will be thinking, ****, wish i listened! But hey, that never happens to you so dont worry about it.

John,

The S02's turned out to be S03's but you probably saw that coming!!! The tyre place just read out the code from screen or something when I ordered and that hadn't been updated. My plan now is to replace the other two with matching S03's hopefully next month when pay day arrives!

I do understand the importance of matching tyres and would love to be in a situation where I could just replace all 4 every time. Sadly that ain't ever gonna happen, unless someone wants to pay me a shedload more money than I get now ...

New tyres look good, feel good and I'm happy for the mo.

Blues.

Thumbs up

Guys we still have a few sizes in the S02.

I agree by the way, the S02 is a much better tyre than the S03. I would rather have a Toyo Proxes than the S03.

If you want a quote on the S02's we've still got email info@blackcircles.com or call 0845 200 0022

Hey John

Not sure about the Ring trip, we shall see.

The Frog and I are going on a long trans-European holiday on Monday. Staying at Bordeaux for wine tasting, and seeing her Grandad, then over the Pyrenees to Barcelona, across to Mallorca for a week, then back to Spain, may go over the Pyrenees’s again, hehehe then up to Lyon, and the Cote Du Rhone region etc for plenty more wine tasting etc , then home. All in about 2500miles.


Can’t wait especially as I’ve got me new S02’s fitted J

OOOOOOOPPPPPPPAAAAAALLLLLLLAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
