Do you prefer mental Grip or playful slip?

That's cheating anyway
Not its not, it is standard equipment on JDM spec cars, so it should be on UK/Euro cars

I'll go for A and still slide the thing at will.

If you really want low speed fun, fit some forest rally tyres!!!!

Wondered how long it would be before you turned up John Hope you are keeping well.

Jim555 Take it steady on new tyres dude. Like most things, they need a bit of time to bed in and also for all the transit preservatives and oils to be "worn" away. Most tyres especially performance ones tend to be a tad less grippy when new. Not a problem if you know but not much fun if you don't

Cool

If you are not a 'gripper' what are you doing in a Scoob?

I like TOYO's

If you want to see this put into practice come up to York (elvington airfield) this weekend for Ten of the Best 2, it's going to be awesome!

Defintely like it slippy. Makes for a much more challenging drive.

I've always looked forward to the rain so I can check out a bit of "slippy", trouble is, I've just replaced the Pirellis with SO3s....

BTW Gridlick Mikey you are dead right about grip when first fitted, this set has taken 150+ miles to feel right. When I first put them on, they felt worse than the pirellis
