i love this tread pattern! i want them! |
agreed, very very cool looking...impressions ASAP, |
Got them on, only had a short drive home in bumper to bumper traffic. :banghead: :aargh4: Road noise at 45-50mph is down considerably versus the GoodYear RSA's about 50%. Will get more readings/reviews tomorrow on the highway also. Did some weaving in and out of traffic, it grips pretty damn good! Just gotta wait for some rain and test the wet traction. There is more wheel saver lip on this tire, should help with cornering more. :burnout2: :drive: http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...redestein6.JPG http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...redestein7.JPG http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...redestein8.JPG http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...redestein9.JPG http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...edestein10.JPG http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...edestein11.JPG http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...edestein12.JPG http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...edestein13.JPG http://www.freedomcomputers.net/ms3/...edestein14.JPG |
Dude, I'd pay just to have that thread pattern. beautiful |
man, go and test these babies out! I am thinking about buying them now and I have at least 20k left on my tires. lol |
Question: Why'd you go with such a large sidewall?? |

I had 245/45/18 on previously to see how much I could tuck in the fenders on the RX-8 Wheels 18x8 50mm. Which I had to roll the fenders for cutting and put air bags in the rear for rubbing. This is all done on stock suspension. I just like taller tires, protects from pot hole damage more. More of a cusion for 18 inchers. Alittle higher off the ground. Had a bad experience with a parking lot rebar and lost lol. :swordfight: I guess more safety, it's my daily driver. Just like my condom for the SRI. :biggrin: |
Fair enough. ;) |
Did a few lanches and it was just little bit harder to break loose than before. I get more of a bite, kinda bogged the engine. So now I gotta lanch at a higher RPM. On ramp and Off ramp at higher speeds was alot better! I felt more in control.:tongue3: Road noise was definitely quieter, 50% quieter if not more. Now I could hear my radio, engine and BPV even more now. Cruising at 80mph I didn't have to turn up the radio so loud lol. :fing02: When cruizing on the highway, put it in neutral and all I hear is the wind and very little bit of the road. Now I'm just waiting for it rain. |
love the new sig lol |
my god dude those are nice! can't wait to see them in person! |
These got a cool tread pattern as well: http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:6...0-original.jpg |
those are the shit! |
I also have them on my new wheels oz crono.....when you touch them they feel kinda spongy ....its weird....have to wait for my car to be fixed cant tell any more about the tires since didnt drive on them yet..... |
Got them on my MPS6 for 2 seasons and they are about out. Can't really compare them to any other tires cause I've changed weared out stockers (that were on when I've bought my car) to them. As for my experience those are very good dry tires (not as good as R888 though) and good on wet. Ran them at autocross few times and was able to compete with EVOX 350 on stock Dunlops. |
What kind of threads did u have on yor prev. goodyear tires? Suprised that u say these new ones is quieter.. often those arrow shaped thread makes the tire more noisy.... But if they are quiet thats great! I want quiet tires... Iam looking for new tires my self... I love Pirellis tires Specially PZero Nero. Great stuff! |

I'm guessing on the Vredestein, you would think it would make more noise just by looking at them, but the design is really done right I think. So far Dry traction is really good, way better than I expected. Still waiting on the rain. Yesterday on the highway going 90mph I had to avoid small and larger pieces of semi truck tire on short notice. I weaved and dodged like it was nothing, grip was there. It really made me confident that I could handle any obstacles. God like even lol. :biglaugh: |

that tread pattern just look awesome. Good job with the tires man |
I've just reminded something - beware of slightly wet asphalt/tarmac with temp. lower than 12C with cold tires (city driving). Those tires are lousy with conditions like that and that's why I've changed them to winter tires (Vredestein's Wintrac Extreme) right now. |
I have these tires on my speed6 235/40/18's. I have had them on all summer and they have been great. They have been wearing really good and still look new. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/m...meraOut144.jpg http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/m...meraOut101.jpg |
NICE! :fing02: |
thanks for making me want new tires with only 360mi on mine =(... lol, the stock tires don't look aggressive at all, should've gave us the bridgestone 070 atleast... |
OMG SEXY mdd5148...looks awesome on the 6....here are my BAD-ASS TIRES lololololol i'm so cheap. http://www.tirerack.com/images/tires...f1asc_1000.jpg only $97each |
F1's are great tires mang! |
hehe ya they work good and for the price :D! |
UPDATE: It is finally raining today!!!!!!! Drove out in it for about 2 hours, all different roads in city and highway. It grips really great, I can make turns faster and with more confidence than before. Better than Goodyear RSA and the Bridgestone RE-01. I will be buying more when the time comes. :phillyb: Last area to check is on the drag strip at 18-20psi in them, see how good they are then. This month or next month hopefully. |
Looking forward to get a set like this. Thank you. |
black friday deal at discount tire- i had to go cheaper i just got neo gens |
I had these on my previous car. No complaints whatsoever... |
