what so good about them???

As mentioned it's replacing the S03 & supposedly was tested at Mallalla against the S03 & had better lap times.

Bridgestone seem to be very confident with it's performance as they've spent $$$$ on marketing.

I was quite impressed with the Adrenalins & will definitely be getting a set once I go through my T1-Rs.

I had G3's on my old VR V8 cop car.

ok tyres, but really, for the cash, they were crap.... crap i say. wife lost it a cple of times. just didnt have the grip youd expect them to have, on a slippery surface.

best priced and performing tyres Ive ever used on a car are my current fare; Hankook Ventus K104 awesome tyre, $190 ea for 17x 235

I dont see how you can lose traction with these tyres on the street - if you do then you're doing something wrong. ie coming too hot into a corner, or perhaps braking thru the corner (big no-no; always end your braking B4 you hook into the crnr)

mind you, i do have AWD and a few extra hundred kgs in the stagea so maybe that makes a difference to a RWD skyline, in the way that they handle..... but this set should last 4yrs (35,000kms). top value. id argue that with anyone.

best bike tyres Ive had were Michelin Pilot's, top of the range goodness :) $290 for rear and $230 for front. worst tyre was Michelin sports, long range tyre not made for kneedown cornering. meant to last 12000kms, I ripped mine up in 5000 lol.

michelins hot spot is in the high temperatures tho isnt it, whereas bridgestone is better known as an all rounder and wet control tyre.

Id take pirellis over both tho. but I am going to go with these andrenalines ive decided.

I had GIIIs on the R34 and they were absolutely brilliant. Only problem was when I went to replace them the rear 255s were going to cost $450 each!

Went for Michelin Pilots and they have been awesome, but as usual I only got just over 10,000km from them.

Might try these out next.

    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.   
    • Haha I just finished the last season of TPB: Jail last month. I'm happy they're still pumping out episodes.
