Rgds, Bob
I posted a previous thread about tyres, having put a set of sumitomos on (at 26,000kms)
I have done another 5,000kms since then and am over the moon about the new tyres. They are grippy, quiet, good in the wet, and appear to be wearing well.
Even my wife commented that she thought the car was quieter especially over coarse chip bitumen.
I was aprehensive of putting "cheap" tyres on the car (at $260 a corner they are significantly cheaper than the Michelins I was considering), but after doing some research and taking a chance, I could not be happier.
My uncle also put a set on his RX8, and cannot believe how good they are compared to the bridgestones he had on there.
Each to there own, but I honestly believe the Sumitomos are a great tyre for the R36.
Cheers.
Jon.
