Howdy!

Just bought an Accord Type-R to use as a donor car for my non-ATR. I will be using the ATR until the summer so that I can give it a good shakedown and do the engine swap in warmer weather.

Unfortunately the tyres on it at the moment are well and truly shagged, so I need suggestions if you could be so kind!

Requirements are:

1.Grippy! I want something that will stick in the dry. Not too bothered about wet weather grip as I don't hoon in the wet. As long as it's safe and not reminiscent of P6000's! hehe

2. Good tread wear. I would like to get some mileage out of them.

3. Nothing too loud on road noise, but again I'm not too bothered about it.

I have short listed it down to Federal 595RSR, Falken FK452, Potenzas (have them on my other Accord) and Vredestein Ultrac Vorti so any opinions on those would be great!

Many Thanks,
Nathan
