There are more options for grip in 18's than 19's and I really wanted to try out the kumho ku36 before going to a really expensive tyre for some track work.

I went ku31's. even in a short run today, grip is sooo much better in the wet.btw I wish I had your brakes- they are killa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nelsonian101 Donating Members 961 Member For: 16y 7m 27d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 23/09/10 06:27 AM Share Posted 23/09/10 06:27 AM Not sure on Brembos but they were really helpful in making sure the ap's would fit before buying. Did a test fitment. Great service! The wheels look good and with still performance characteristics.I was incorrect regarding my comments above on Brembos clearance.I actually test fitted some Zumbo Yakos today (Front 8.5" x 18" with +30 offset), and they DID NOT clear my front Brembos. Maybe my DBA5000 alloy hat sits a little fit further in than the solid Brembo or DBA4000 rotors....but I can't be sure.This sucks as I really like the wheels and they are a good price.The Black and Red AP brakes/car go really well together.
