Tony Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Very odd...... Asymmetrical/ directional or both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIH Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Yeah that's an odd one. I like the look of them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palmo Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Heard some good reviews on these although I don't have any personal experience of them. Agree they look good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 I've fitted one set on a "experienced race drivers" road car and he thinks they are amazing. What's odd about them is the osf configuration as a directional tyre is back-to-front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Do they tramline much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P4UL T Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 These are getting great reviews from us guys on STdrivers, I will be getting a set soon for me ST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 How much are these then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P4UL T Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 They are quite good value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkO Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 They are quite good value for money. Â elitedirect.com and camskill.com both have good prices for these tyres thanks for advertising our compeitors but you might like to try us as we can also supply this tyre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaumeister Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Here comes a cheeky question then, I realise it is difficult to publish prices with so many tyre combos, but knowing those sites and prices, are WIM/blackboots prices comparable to those?

Â I would like the think so... we already retail below Black Circles price "with ease normally", ok sometimes we will be off the mark if they have an offer on but it's worth an ask if your looking for rubber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIH Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 ....What's odd about them is the osf configuration as a directional tyre is back-to-front  True but you've seen that before ? Like the centre tread of Conti PremContact SSRs, or the inner treads of Michelin Pilot Primacy. They're directional but play second fiddle to the overall asymetric "ethos"  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have edited me post. Â I did actually contact Tony for prices on these tyres a few months ago, as of yet I have not made a purchase as im now not using my car as much as I used to. Â Sorry again.

Yaumeister Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Quick question, I imagine it may not be appropriate for me to go into specifics on the forum, so I just want to check whether tyre prices quoted by yourselves are final or is there a price match (or at least similar) policy? Â I realise haggling isn't something that's looked highly upon (think there was a thread somewhere in this forum), and I'm even happy to pay extra for the privilege of professional service, using the BOSS machine, etc, but under the current economy I may have to give them up if the difference is too big.

Tony Posted March 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Price matching is a must to some extent.... If you come up with a better price we're not to know this until you say so, then we can look into how come we're off the mark. Â When this does happen, and it does, it gives us a chance to remain competitive and hopefully beat the competitors price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P4UL T Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Just done 100 miles going to a meet. They seem great. I cant say I have noticed any difference in the noise. But I still do have cheap tyres on the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 So far then they appear great.... Can you please keep us apprised of the overall performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P4UL T Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Yeah of course, hopefully I will be up to see you guys soon too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 What tyres did these replace and how many miles did you get out of them? Be interesting to see what mileage you get out of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
