Not used GY F1's for years, the last set I had was on the V8S over ten years ago, I found the sidewalls felt like they were made of jelly, not good. Chopped them very quickly back for Bridgestone's.

Can't comment on them from ten years ago but I've had them on my Cerbera for the last 9, all weathers and trackdays. Always found them very good wear, grip and performance. Predicable in all weathers. Tyre pressures possibly? I've found 24psi all around to be good.

I have however swapped the Bridgestones for kumho's on the MX-5 as they were £50 cheaper a tyre and I needed a full set. They don't feel as planted and do have those firm jelly feel so I won't be buying those again.

The V70?

Just to close this off, I procrastinated for so long the AD08R's came back into stock and I had a set fitted a couple of weeks ago.. Pretty good so far, nice stiff side wall, which I like and now they're getting bedded in lots of grip and a lot less wheel spin.
