Hey Guys

Looking for those whove had experiences dealing with both these tyres in wet conditions

Are the KU39's worth the extra dough?

Im currently running 265-35-18 on the rear. The 255's are much cheaper , would my performance be hurt that much by fitting a 255 in place of the 265's? Car is a daily driver which sees no track use.

Cheers

a) I thought you already chose a set of tyres over a month ago

b) I told you to consider yokohamas while your at it

c) your packing bricks because your car/you drive like shit in the wet so that should mean that you should buy a really good pair of tyres

d) just go get the ku31's. Lots of people have reviewed them and say they are good

KU36's are fine in the wet from my experience but I would definitely not buy them again due to the incredible road noise they started making at around half tread. Go the KU31's for the road, but even they are noisy from all accounts.

i always used Adrenalin Potenza RE001 on my NA 33, about $220 per corner

Never had issues with them, Mind you i wasent putting much power down but they served me great- Great life out of them too.

You can slip out with anything in the wet - Drive to the conditions and use common sense.

    • Just checking, does the engine turn over and not start? or is it just a single click and doesn't turn over at all?
    • Hi SAU family, having issues with my R34GTT which is slightly modified and tuned to e85. so scenario is, I’m driving the car to work (30km oneway) and then coming back in the arvo. Car starts and runs fine in the morning and on the way back home (in the arvo). I stop the car when i gets home and after 10-15 mins, it wont start. Battery is fine, fuel pump seems to be working. All i hear is engine clicks but wont start.  Last time, i disconnected the battery terminals and re connected them. Check fuses. Didnt start at that time but started after an hour (so I say when its cool down). Mechanic cant find the issue as its running now and nothing coming up in the diagnose. any advice,opinion or anyone gone through similar issue.   thanks 🙏🏻
    • 9" +35 will rub on the suspension. R33 GTR wheels are +30.
    • I know a guy with 18x9 +22 on the front of a 32 gtst, needed quite a lot of guard work, tyre stretch (215) and camber. Not sure what your current set up is, +35 won't be as much, but still a fair bit of guard work and camber.
