    tyers for winter

    at the moment i have a set of 15" OZ superleggars with falken tyers (can't remember the brand) but even though there great in the dry, once it gets wet i daren't take a corner above speed limit as i no grip what so ever! (the wheel goes loose as hell and it slides out - scarey when it first happened to me!)

    can any one recomend a set of tyers that have great grip in the wet that don't break the bank?

    Pirelli P6000's are probably the best all rounder you can buy.

    £75 per rim is a little Expensive, do they do them with a 45 profile? (as my car is lowered and 50 will catch with full lock)

    i think i've left this a little late for the winter (as i don't have £300 for tyers!) lol

    3dfx - u mention there great for corners, even in wet, cause thats where i'm being let down

    i got beat by a bloody smart car in the wet cause i just got pure wheel spin through first and 2nd!
