Noticed today that my car seemed to be behaving more progressivley and telling me a bit more clearly as limits were about to be breached. I'm running P-Zeros and think the're normally quite snappy. Anything to do with the warmer weather?

Yup. Although your tyres are by now most likely at least 6 years old, so they are quite hard and slippery compared to new ones.

Would probably be a good idea to get some fresh rubber on there (eg. BFGoodridge G-Force Profilers or if you want to keep it 'lotus' then the Advan Neova's) and then you'll know how much grip the car really has!

Bye, Arno.

As Arno says, they're not the best tyres for the Elise.

Finally got shot of my P0s last year and I am delghted with the Advan Neova LTS in all respects.

You only have 4 small patches or rubber in contact with the road so worth going for the best imvho.
