The Rainsports I rate and they perform well on my 370bhp hatch |
Thanks for the feedback, I kind of talked myself out of the AD08r's, I really need a bit more of an all rounder. Going to go for the uniroyal rs3's from camskill £254 delivered (price is changing daily) and get them fitted locally somewhere...

Lots of good attributes here :thumb: See attached Reasonably priced and well reviewed too,
But remember it is a summer tire . At 7 deg or less its time to think about silca compounds , as used in winter / all year tires. I have not fitted a set of winters to my scooby yet, but when i did to my little Glanza the ability in the snow and cold icy conditions was unbelieveable |
I'm getting some Yokohama ado8rs fitted on Monday . I will prob end up putting rainsports on my spare wheels and using them for winter . |

The eminently sensible way to go :)

Got the Yokohama fitted on Monday feel like a quality tyre . Not driven hard with them on as I've heard they can be a handful in the wet . Ordered the rainsports tonight will be putting them on my spare wheels next week. |
Rainsports for Christmas
Glad to see you taking the advice, even I feel these days like the ghost of Christmas past,
All you need now is a break in the rain to be able to fit them |
I had AD08Rs 225/45/18s on the Legacy - I really liked them - but yes did notice that I felt I had to be a little bit more careful in the downpours... :)
I just fitted some Michelin PS4s since I couldn't get the Yokos at a reasonable price at the time and the PS4s get great reviews... I also got some Conti TS860s winters 225/50/17 on my 17"s for the first time ever - noticeably softer. Also have some Bridgestone RE070s 215/45/17 (I think) on some 17" that I bought to get me through fitting Brembos - had them on a couple of track days - they felt very grippy... unfortunately wrong tyre size for Leggy so I didn't run them much... |
Have you had much time on the PS4's to give some feedback
Also, are your RE070's FS ;) |

I am a fan of Michelin tyres but have found the PS3 not a performance tyre. The PS2 and PSS that I've tried have been great though. I've used Contis TS860 in a RWD BMW during winter and they've been great on snow. |

Iv run Ad08r for a while, been to nurburgring with them and they were superb in the dry, when track was damp they were steaming wen I got back to car park. Very good tyres but will aquaplane inheavy rain |

Very good tyres but will aquaplane inheavy rain I quite like the aqualplaning - they give plenty of warning and it's progressive. On fastish long sweepers it's good when you can see where the water is - 4 wheel drifts :) |
I'm also running AD08s and very happy with them.
