I contacted them as I was struggling to get the sizes I needed and they were control tyre for the M3 Cup, otherwise I would have most likely used DT too.

I just came across this thread so thought I’d revive it. I have AD08RS on my dc5 after 2 track days they are all showing over 6mm average probably about 6.5mm. They grip well I was able to stick my with my mates in ep3s running ns2r and MRF in the dry all 3 cars 245-250bhp. The morning was wet I was far quicker than cars of the same power. I’m interested to know is the A052 are worth the extra? They have a high wear rating of 200. Better than AR1? Which has a wear rating of 100?
