    I just put a set of Pirelli P7s on our Astra - 215/45 17. Paid $172 at my local Bridgestone dealer. I will have to see what they are like, but anything has to be better than the Neuton 5000s that were on the car. They were really noisy.

    They are a good tyre. I have them on my car. You're not going to scare anyone on a racetrack but for day to day they are quiet and have good wear. I've put 20000 of my own ks on them (looked fairly new when I got the car) and they have about 50% left.

    They seem to do great burnouts too, and those handbrakeys you pulled too was insane... Oh hey Rory!!

    Nah the RE002s are awesome, haven't really tested mine out yet cause im still running the Hero/Streak combo on the front, but once i get a chance to swap those over to my RE001s, ill give them a good push!!

    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.
