Had Federal RSR's on my Mk3, but wondering whether R888's would be better. Unfortunately they don't come in 205/45 17 but in 205/40 or 215/45. Is there a consensus of opinion out there regarding best choice track rubber and size?

Stick with the RSR's or try NS2Rs.

Thanks guys and thanks Paul. Regretted selling the Galaxy Grey Mk3 to you, but have just picked up a beautiful black 2010 Mk3.5 Sport Tech with only 11,250 miles on it. Only had it 2 days but the evolvement from the Mk3 is immediately obvious. Loving it. thumbup

How do those compare to the Dunlop Dirreza DZ03G ?

What you need now is one of our manifold/re-map packages some suspension and you then have a very capable car
