Iam having to fit a new set of tyres to replace the so2s i've had for the last year. Is anybody running so3s and are these any better for the scoobs.

If I were you I'd buy Goodyear F1s, you won't go far wrong with 'em, great grip and wear very well!!!

_o/ "me!"

S03s are very much OK. Silent, good grip on all weather. As a performance tire, they won the tirerack.com test against Michelin Pilot Sport and Pirelli Pzero Rosso.

There are better dry surface tires of course, but for example, what comes to Pzero Yellow, they have their disadvantages (noisy, bad wet traction)...

& I'll have the SO2s off you if they're 16s... ;)

Just put on a set of 215-40-17 SO3's, can confirm that they are quieter, still too new to comment on grip etc but don't seem to be any worse so far. Had the alignment all checked and reset as well so we will see. Direction stability is fine allowing for the fact that I have just changed the steering rack to a "Quikrack" as per 22B. Cheaper than SO2's at Micheldever as well.
