Very very impressed!

Grips like a tenacious turd :biggrin3:
Are you running those for track only or all the time buddy?
All the time pal....

Took a run out to Spa couple of wks ago and performed great. Little bit of heat in them even on the road and still fabulous!

In the damp fine but who pushes in those conditions :beerchug:

Hope that helps mate.

Had the ss 3 on my rs focus and again happy.

Hi Ross, what size tyres have you gone for ? That seems a very good price for 4 new tyres, who did you use ?

Hi nick. You're not the only one to comment on my price - I had two Seperate PM's about it (worried me as I thought I'd made a mistake with the size etc!)

Anyway. I got them from tyre leader:

http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/car-tyres/m ... -96y-66110

I see they're back up to £156 today but I paid £146:

That's a great price! I think I paid nearly £800 for mine, and that was through my Dad's tyre place! Not sure how these are available so cheap! :shock:

i think a paid about £200+ each for my last set of supersports from camskill (they are £169 on there now).
tyreleader is the cheapest place i have seen for tyres, my mate has just ordered a set of ps3 for his a3 and some goodyears for his t5 they came in a couple of days no problem. good dot date on them not like they were old stock.
i think they are based in the netherlands they must just stack em high and sell em cheap!

The price is going up at tyreleader on these by the minute.

Was 156.33 this AM, then 156.68, now 157.39

either it's a system where the hits to the page increase the price, or by volume of orders (and people are ordering off the back of finding this good price!). Either way, order sooner rather than later lol.
