Default AD08R vs Pilot sport cup 2

Hi all,

I'm after some advice based on experience, i'm currently looking at the aforementioned tyres to use on my summer wheels.

The car will be used mostly as a fast road car with the occasional track day (as many as my time off permits!)

I've a second set of wheels shod in Vredestein ultrac sessantas so can use these if the weather really takes a bad turn, the car in question is a lightly modified classic although this will no doubt creep! In fact it already has

The Michelin's are slightly cheaper although price isn't really a bother, has anyone experience with these as a road tyre? how do they compare to the AD08R in terms of wear and wet weather capability?

Any advice and info would be greatly appreciated

Sunny

Cheers BBB3, looks like the AD08R is the way to go.

They have great reviews over on pistonheads too!

I have ad08r on mine too. Grip is unreal. Even in wet they are pretty decent.

I've got no complaints about my AD08R's.
