MK4 Handling

It could be. I have Parada's on the front of hers and it doesn't understeer at all.
Got pirelli p7000 on the rear and they don't feel half as grippy.

Well theres your bloodly problem.....
Or your going to fast for the corner

p6000's are horrid tyres, there on my 16s and i hate them, cant wait to get the 18s back on.

rear arb, get a good one and when you come to sell just take it off ready for the 1.8t. same floor pan. makes such a difference.

so today's lesson ladies and gents, sh!t tyres on the back = oversteer, sh!t tyres on the front = understeer

who'd have thunk it

Agreed, getting rid of mine made the world of difference!

I agree that p6000 are pants. They were designed as a low grade premium tyre for rep mobiles that last quite a long time which in turn means they have a harder compound in them.
The p7000 was made purely as a sports car tyre and they are pretty good tbh.
They work at their optimum halfway through their life but then tend to wear out quickly.(can you tell I used to work for pirelli as a young un)

Their P5000 Drago was my all-time favourite tyre and they looked sexyfull too! Shame they ceased production a few years ago

Anyway I will stick the Parada's on the back and see if their us a difference but I cant see there being that much difference tbh

I believe so,although they were the older style and not the new Powergy's
