Had a look a 888's and yoko A048's and both too far out of price range

However decided to go for a set of Yoko AD08's as these are the best tyres that I can afford and heard nothing but good reviews so decided on these

Just need to shop about a bit

tell me about it, bit too pricey for my liking, thats why i settled for the AD08's

really cant wait to see the difference when i head back out on combe this weekend, was onhalf worn bog standard road tyres and my old spax suspension and my old 2.0ltr brakes last time i went on track round there

complete overhaul this time round so should be awesome

I'll do my best Ad

Will be able to give a better write up on Sunday as I couldnt really comment on the spax vs Gaz debate as my current tyres were so shit lol plus it was greasy which didn't help

So bring on a dry Combe so I can get a good comparison

Good news people just spoke to me dad, Corsa is now equipped with AD08's, tyre fitters were round this afternoon met my dad when he got home from work and fitted in less than half an hour and i didnt have to lift a finger
