Pirelli are quite a soft compound arent they though?

My contis have worn well, im bordering nearly 2 years now!

I got a price of £76.37 fitted for a continental 40!

poor comparison but:

45s


40s

Fark! I personally didnt realise that 40's and 45's were so much different!

I know on mine the 45's really lean alot and make the steering slightly wallowy. Ive done it before where ive washed the car, put tyre shine on the tyre walls, gone out for a "brisk" drive, then came back and had to put more tyreshine on them . Thats at 32PSi .

Anyway, the comparison (Both Dunlop SP9000's)...

You'll have to hit some very big potholes to fuck your alloy on one.. And if the pothole is that big, you should see it and drive around it or slow down and drive through it (providing it's not dark ofcourse ).
