Being lazy has advantages.Cruise could meet at 2pm if that still suits everyone. Time can be discussed in the cruise thread in the days leading up to it to fit people in somewhat.As for tyres discussion (from cruise thread) Mat has some words to say about the KU36's, Dean too I think. Seems to be a love or hate tyre. Not sure I'd like the gamble! Edited 18/01/11 02:51 PM by -SteveR- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo6FG Silver Donating Members 497 Member For: 14y 6m 22d Gender: Male Posted 18/01/11 10:56 PM Share Posted 18/01/11 10:56 PM Anyone tried Yokohama Advan AD08's before? They are meant to be hell grippy, and are available in 275/30/R19's.http://www.yokohama.com.au/ourtyres/tyre.aspx?tyreid=208I've got 245/35/19s of them on the front & 295/30/19s on the back. Very expensive but very very good. They grip like a cat on carpet in the dry & are even good in the wet. I think the only place you can get them from in WA is Wheels World Ossie Park.I'll be getting my next set of rears off www.tirerack.com (almost half price) & just get some Bridgestone Adrenalines or something for the front from a local dealer.

How much louder is it than stock? Any droning or anything like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much louder is it than stock? Any droning or anything like that?Full stainless twin 3" manta full exhaust has a good reputation. I run the smaller 2x2.5" in mild as I'm a tight ass... it does the job but the note needs improving, drones badly from time to time. Save for the twin 3 if you want higher power as well!

Any droning or anything like that?Not 100% sure what Simon uses nowadays, but pretty sure it's either the Manta Twin 3" getup with 4" dump pipe & twin 3.5" cats or the SMB 4" dump pipe, SMB 5" cat & XFT adaptor pipe to suit.Either option is a great exhaust & give a much beefier/louder note than stock, while keeping it sounding nice & non-droney (if that's a word )...Slash, how are the Toyos for road noise compared to the stock tyre?Brilliant!T1R's are slightly noisier than the R1R, but both are quieter than the Dunlops from memory... Haven't run Dunlops for a long time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Manta is over $3000 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
