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?

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
