Hi

Anyone tried these on a Caterham yet?

Would be interested in feedback and discussion.

About the same mileage as CR500, then.

7mm (new) to 2mm on rears (205) in 2100 miles of Alpine passes in R400 K series.
Just a function of working them hard.
Pretty sure, judging by some group blats that many have driving styles which would give more.
Also mostly in UK fewer opportunities for intensive working, except maybe Scotland.

Anyway, aside from wear, what comment on grip (dry/wet), feel, turn-in, steering kick-back, ride, noise, etc?
+/- analysis v CR500 / ZZR / Toyo888 ?

My tyre choice for my 7 would have mileage fairly near bottom of selection criteria.
The other aspects are more important, explaining why after 500 miles on ZZR I took them off and returned to CR500.
