Iv got them on my 96 STI 406bhp much prefer them to the Proxes I had before. Much better in the wet & in the dry more progressive,you can feel them letting go
rather than suddenly heading towards a ditch like the
Proxes.Give them a go for the money I dont think you'd get better.

Got them in 215/45/17 on my blobeye wagon and like them. Not quite as stiff as the Bridgestone Potenza RE050 on before but quiet, good grip in wet and dry and good feel. Got them from Camskill for £67 each so can't complain

I have them on the back wheels. Can't wait to wear the fronts down so I can have these too. About £80 on Tesco/blackcircles fully fitted and you get your Clubcard points.
Don't tend to slide on greasy roundabouts like budgets.

I know what you mean, i was told by my local tyre firm that the khumo ecsta supra was a good tyre, so i got 4, when i went back and said they were shockingly bad, he said the st200/220 boys love them
