I think I might get one more trackday out of my NS-2R's, just won't be able to drive to the event on them.
The Bridgestones on the rear, seem to have a lot of rubber, just not in the right place!
Are they 120 ?The Bridgestones on the rear, seem to have a lot of rubber, just not in the right place!
I am really pleased with my 180 but I probably didn't have much more apex speed than you (I was in the grey Megane but the slower one).

They have also done Thruxton and Brands previously I believe.
Thruxton killed my NS2Rs very quickly so that's probably where most of Adams tread went also!

I've had them unused for a while in the garage, when I bought them, they were just called "Medium" compound. I guess that is road/180.They have also done Thruxton and Brands previously I believe.

They did pretty well really, 3 track days and about 8,000 road miles over the summer months, for the money I'd definitely buy them again.

Medium is 120, which is consistent with your experience in terms of wear.
Depends on who they came from! - Tyreleader are notorious for inaccurate descriptions. My 180s were sold as mediums, but they now list them as 'street'!, where as 120s are track, they even do 100s now - shown as 'comp'.Adam - our of interest check check the Tread wear rating on them thats where the number is noted.
Great weather for a Feb day and fun driving with some friends.
Here was a clear lap.

Few laps onboard with the 360 camera. Chasing Meganes and a Seat Leon race car.
