ed 30 standard tyres

[Teutonic_Tamer]

Why on earth did VW fit rubbish tyres to some Edition 30 cars?

Because although Dunlops are shyte, they are still actually classed as a 'premium brand' tyre - in the same pidgeon hole as say Michelin, Continental, Dunlop, Brigestone, etc.

I would not be suprised to see Barums on them.  (Although I have a car shod with Barums and they are not bad.)

Who knows!  They currently also factory fit Kumhos and Firestone to their lesser models!

  Yet when Robin reported back, with his Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetrics, he was getting wheelspin in 3rd!

So I really don't get how the F1 Asym can be 'better' than the Mich PS2?

To be fair RR is remapped, so somewhat more power than standard.

Well my power isn't standard either - around 320bhp and we both have a Quaife fitted

once worn in... the Goodyears F1's are a great tyre! The difference between these and the sportmaxx is day and night. PS2's equally as good I would say but I found them to wear quite quickly.

What car have you used the PS2s on then?   

C2 vts... lasted approximately 8k
