Apart from me on here, no. No problems so far and they are cheap :) which was a big factor for me.

They got good reviews, after I bought the syrons I thought I had made a mistake. Interesting that u hated them.

At that price it would be great if they are good on track

I am completely bias but for everyday driving it has to be the RainSport 2's. They stand up to some punishment on track too. Make sure you get the XL (Extra Load) stiffened sidewall version though ;)


I am going to try the Federal RSR as fast road / track tyre since they have been getting good reviews and are much cheaper than the AD08's or R888's .
