Grip like funk but wear VERY quickly. I got about 1000-1500 miles out of a set, but i was driving it fairly hard :). Got another set on the car now :thumbsup:

quite simply, they're brilliant. the level of grip of just so much better than falken or A008's.

They don't last too long though.....

If the suspension geometry isnt aggressive, and you dont push hard, they can last longer than what you expect.
By the way A032R are wet tyres with a very soft compound, so they wear down very fast in hot conditions.
On track use, u'll see them wearing each lap in dry conditions.

This is what i'll be doing darren10_3, however running a winter set of wheels (Wellers) and three piece splits during spring and summer months.

They're are the best tyres out there be do wear a bit, you'll find you will have to look after the tyres (like an f1 driver), you'll have bags of fun.

Enjoy :D
