HI there


Well got an EVO X FQ-360 last week, so spent the weekend polishing it up and also the Mustang and thought I'd get some photos of the pair.


So enjoy!






































Thats the lot. biggrin

The whole 666 thing would put most people off. biggrin

All you need now is a small sticker on the rear window ''Take a ride with the devil''

Nice pair!

How are you finding the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta on the EVO? I'm thinking of a set for my Mazda 6 MPS and I wondered what you think of them?

Hi there

Got them on both the Mustang and EVO.

On the Mustang, a very good tyre, lots of grip in all conditions apart from when its sub 5c outside and they wear extremely well.

Performance wise they seem very similar to the F1 Asymmetric, but with stiffer sidewalls and possibly longer wearing.

Only weak point I would say is they don't give you too much feedback and they break away quite harshly on the Mustang, not progressive and don't give any warning you just grip grip grip and then slide.

Toyo's I find very progressive but they have mushy sidewalls this probably is what gives the progressive feeling and Toyo's don't tend to last long.

Thanks guys, I might give them a try on the MPS. I've just fitted a set of Vredestein Quatrac 3 tyres on my knockabout Fiat Doblo and they are superb. smile

Hi there

They are a great tyre, only issue you might have on something like an EVO/Subaru is they are very hard to get heat into especially on these sub 10c days.

They really are a summer tyre and so don't turn really stick until those hot days and when your really pressing on. The advantage to this is good wear rates and quite progressive handling in cooler/colder conditions.

Nice cars you have there. I have to say that the Evo X is a fairly chunky car. From some angles it looks almost as 'big' as the Mustang!

Did you not consider an Evo IX? I just think the latest Evo has become too big..

I used to drive my brothers Evo 6 TME a lot and thought that was a superb car, very agile and pretty light.

Never driven an Evo X but I am happy to be corrected smile

Great pair of cars - you must be on good terms with your local fuel emporium with those!

Oh, and, er, nice jumper!

Wow fantastic pair! (how often can you get away with saying that?)

I honestly couldn't say which I prefer! Fantastic. Which one do you take out when you want a quick fun drive?

I'll bear that in mind though I doubt they are any harder than the Falken 452's I have on now. You need to light a bonfire under those to warm them up! smile
