Just buy the very best your budget will afford.

Michelin will be good, so will Pirelli, dunlops, continentals, then you have the next tier down, like kuhmos, hankooks, etc, before you reach bottom ling long china spec which really don't rate a mention if your after a decent tyre.

what size you need?

I have some Hankook Evo V12 225/40/18 and 245/40/18 and they are amazing. Brand new, i had a set in 19" and wow the thread life, grip, wet grip were amazing. Almost as good as Michelin Power Sport 2 which are 2x price.

Where do you live? I have the set for $800 obo

I'm growing a little tired of our Australian market not considering our tyre sizes to be within their minimum volume requirements. Given the specifications from Nissan, it'd be nice to have the correct spec tyres to suit. It's actually tempting to consider buying them from the US.

My continental tyres corner at a higher G in the wet than the hankook evos can manage in the dry on the same car....

Thanks for the link, interesting.

I now run the RS3 and my mate uses them in the Time attack series, as do alot of other competitors.

If they can handle springbrook and mt nebo they can handle daily driving for a sedan !

My point was when comparing to other tyres in the same price bracket they are amazing tyres.

Even the RS3s aren't a real semi slick. They are in the same boat as federal RSR, KU 36, to some extent AD08. They are a ling long (see what I did there....:P) way off real semis like Z221, A048, R888/NT01.

Anyway, too off topic now, buy the best your budget will allow!

Yes off topic haha, my point was for the money the hankook evo v12 are alot of tyre for the price. Esp if u pick them up new for what im selling !!! :)

PN-Mad, i agree most of the time with what you say and always hope you will help me with my turbo issues ! but no way RSR, KU36 or 888 are close to RS3, they are destroyed on the track. RS3 are on par with AD08, Z221, i dont know what A048 is, RE11 is the only one i would say outperforms them in that group. I wasted hours and hours reading experiance based racing threads on the use of RS3 Vs Z221 Vs RE11 Vs AD08. That friend i was talking about, 58sec lake side Evo 8 swears by RS3, alot of the guys in time attack use them. But back to topic, let me know if i can help out with the tyres ! :)

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
