# PROJECT # Trans Am - R.I.P

i had hankook death sliders on the xr2 at one point.. closely followed by a pair of dark horse ditch diviners.... what a w4nk set of tires...

I've got a set of Marshal's on the Oldsmobile and they are possibly the quietest and best riding tyre I have ever bought.. plus they grip like sh!t to a blanket...

The Saleen has pirelli p-zero on the front and dunlop sp9000 on the back.. absolutely awesome grip, ust incredible on the street...

Well they stick ok on the chavscort and i dont exactly drive like a granny although chasing that porsch back from MK the other week they were a little livley on the twisting back roads of deanshanger then again at 105mph the whole car was pretty much on the edge, but kept with the bastid

lol..... they were ok in a straight line but the xr2 had no body roll so any slip angle from the tyres was amplified... it was fairly scary at some points.. plus the xr2 weighed naff all so there wasnt much weight on each tyre therefore the grip coefficient was high but the ultimate grip was poo....
