Which Tyres Would Buy?

[GTjake]

You may know this already, but...

If you buy the Pilot Sports, make sure you get the ones made in Europe, NOT Asia (Thailand, I think)!

They are Pilot Sport in name (and price!) only.

I tried to order Pilot Sport 2s for my GT-P, but couldn't find anyone who would guarentee the origin, so I gave up with the local fools.

The bloke at one of the tyre shops admitted openly that the Asian ones are utter crap, but also said I'd have to pay a deposit and accept whatever Michelin Australia delivered to them.

For $3000, I don't f'n think so...

You hopefully get better from wherever you order them from.

Try google-ing about Asian vs European PS2s, you should find some reviews/tests.

Good luck.

What are the tyres that Geea got? He was saying they are absolutely awesome but had to be imported as they arent available locally?
