Hi guys.

getting ready for a pair of rears soon enough...theres a surprise.

what brands do you recommend.used to run hankook on the bmw and was impressed.
but with 180 bhp more and 200 kg more. maybe they aint suitable

so throw up what ya got /recommend and places to purchase form .

looking forward to the replies.

ive got Dunlop sport maxx on the front and they seem decent enough

@007vxr

car is a 04 cv8 with 430 flywheel hp.

driving style, its my daily its gets a fair share of pottering and some fast a roads.
I like to drive quick but don't want ultimate grip a little amount of 'play' is much more fun.
