Where can I get some Maxsports from?

Was gonna chuck some of these on the Elise to see if they cope with the Honda better than road tyres. Can't be arsed with 48s or R888s.

Anyone know where I can get a set?

I think they are avaiable in 185/55/15 and 205/50/16. Is that right?

Cheers

Dan

a search under Shug+dodgy+batch+quality might be worth it too..

their quality control isn't exactly any good. (Utter sh!te I think were his words...)

I use Maxsports on N1 TUT, first started with them seven years ago, but need to replace the rears.

What are you planning to do with yours?

Dan, I'd be wary mate - last couple of sets I had were total tupperware and I'd bet that you'll get more grip and life from a set of BFGs.

I'm king pikey with consumables and even I'm now running on A038s

Not planning much... my fronts were blistered and I wanted to try something else. Toyo R888's

The rears seam to be one of the good batches of Maxies.

Less than a 500 miles on them, make me a reasonable offer and there yours.. i can give you tread depths if you like before you decide. Might be a few days before I get time.

Cheers for the heads up Shug.

How come you chose 38s instead of 48s? I have to say, I do like the look of 38s.

Dan

p.s. That reminds me, I never got back to you about the heater matrix did I? You have PM.

I chose the 38s purely as it's what Ronnie had on the truck at short notice!

Great tyre though - although much to my disgust, I've not been on track with them yet
