Have had them for 8 months daily driver. Making 180rwkw

255s on xxr18s. Good in wet good in dry. Minimal road noise. Excellent value for preformance. Please note these tyres feel like a much softer compound than what im used to does wear quite quickish. I don't do launches or punch it hard but I do a few kms in year. So yeah.

Not a tyre expert. Quite happy with them on the road. Esp with this heavy duty clutch in the rain :|

Any update on the momo tyres?

How many k's you've done on them?

Has the rubber changed? Hardened?

going by my first post, it's been over a year now with these up front. they have not hardened or developed any inconsistency.

not sure of kms. i'll guess at 8-10k.

still grippy. suprisingly not much wear, and wearing evenly.

i'm really pleased with the tyres. i highly recommend them.

i will be getting these again. there is nothing close in this price range, and probably nothing for double the price too.

Only st george tyres in rockdale sell the momos as its their brand with momo together... price is the same... ask for Sam and just tell him Daniel with the white r34 sent you and he'll fix you up a tad, good family friends...

Hi, I realize it's an old thread but.......I bought a full set of these shoes for my little rvr 18 months ago from a place in Brookvale. I've now travelled 30,000 with them, and have given them hell. I have a problem with my right foot, which triggers a problem with my left foot, but it only happens in cars. For the money, these are super sticky.

I'm about to go and get another set as I'm now 1mm from the wear indicators. They did go off a little bit after about 7000km's or so on the front, but I rotated them at 10000 km's.

I have found them faultless in wet / dry / hard braking / cornering. I even started trying to REALLY push and find where they would let go after the first 500 km's, simply because they gave me so much confidence, again no luck until I'd worn a fair bit of tread off them.

I run mine around 38-40 psi with 205/50 r17's, but man they have made my bus stick through any corner I've thrown at it.

I've had expensive tyres on many cars over the years, although this is my first awd car. I actually bought it as a bit of a laugh for taking dogs to the beach and back, but then once I got to know it with the momo outrun m3's, I just love to take it out and give the rex's etc a shock whenever possible.

Go the Momo's, you won't be disappointed. :yes:

+1 here as well

Had these Tyres on my GTR for the last 6 months.

Grip good dry and wet, no complaints.

I would easily recommend them to anyone reading this because you will not get better money for value. 100%

I drive on them daily on my wagon, they are a bit noisy (expected from a $75-80 tyre). I'll be spending a bit more next time on quiet.

Tread life is great though, mine look almost new and it's been a bit over a year since I got them. Grip is decent, although since my tyres are oversized, they roll a bit more and the front end looses grip under acceleration while turning (e.g. turning onto a motorway on-ramp, Subaru Liberty turbo).

Where do you get them for that price? What size?

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
