absolute garbage tyre.. stay away from them..

I just had to get a new set of 19" tyres cause the Ns2's only lasted 15k

still heaps of tread on them but they are all cracked on the sidewalls.

Have them on my car now and they didnt grip with standard power. And now they definatly dont there is no use of tuning these cars for power if it doesnt go to the ground. Although it can be alot of fun!!! they are the 19" 245/35 ns2s

I found them no problem at all puting the power to the ground.

On a recent track day on twenties got a little sqirmy as you would expect but on 17s alot better.

If you have a seperation problem like shwn above take them back, they do have a warranty.

This is my car on the 20s at morgan park.

Tyres - a classic example of you get what you pay for! Tread pattern and compound is the most important thing to go for with your expected driving conditions.

Most "name" brands develop new tread patterns and compounds each year and then sell the "old" moulds to cheapo tyre mobs like Nangbangers (or whatever). Trouble is the other "non name" brands use sh*tty compounds. Bottom line - the "name"brands do the R&D and set the standard, the others just follow with cheap immos.

I'm not slagging the cheaper brands, well I spose I am, but after travelling 50,000 Ks a year for the last 6 years in everything from a Pursuit to Subaru to a F6 I can only give this advice:

1. Grip in dry and wet is paramount.

2. Wear is secondary.

3. Yoko AVS Sport are simply the best - factory dunlops come a close second.

I hope you did a few burnouts with them before you took them off,

just to clear yourself of any frustration :crybaby:
