New tyres in the morning.

Was going to go for Falken 912. But as a speedy replacement was required had to have more Dunlops.

£230 ish later I can open the car door to the smell of new tyres. cloud9

Now if only I could reproduce the small of unburned 4 star coming out the back I'd think it was the 80s again.

Seems like a good price. Does it handle better on the fresh rubber?

There's more grip again in the wet...

I can't say I've noticed much other difference.

The same tyres were £200 a few years ago.
