    New tyres!

    Had my "seriously illegal" front tyres replaced yesterday and swapped to the back so I can finish off the old Conti's. The dealer refused to road test the car after service due to the tyres

    Anyway, I went for some Yokohama AVS Sport's and so far they are f***ing amazing! It feels much more planted going around corners, much less twitchy. I know they're a soft compound but if they last 8 months I'll be happy.

    Anyway, some pics as usual





    Highly recommended

    My name is Simon

    How long did it take you to bed them in? My P6Ks took about 300 miles before they felt good

    Um... 20 minutes?

    Yeah there's a reflection off the exhaust tips on the bumper making it look white.
