Hi Guys

I just put a new set of Corsas (the option tire) on the V8 and to my mind they seem to be more precise than the Bridge. Certainly look better with a wider rear track and chunkier tread pattern. Anyone else any thoughts on the comparison. Threw my tracking out mind you LOL another trip to Rick next week to get that wheel centred (again)

Hi,

yes I agree the corsas defo look the part and are an inch wider on the rear so making the car look a tad more aggressive from behind. I also agree with the comments on the wet handling of the tyre, I've been caught out a few times on some seemingly innocent looking standing water a normal tyre would just pass through without a problem, so do be careful. I can't comment on how they compare with the brigestones but the grip sure is evident on a warm day!

Btw, how much did u pay for the set if u don't mind me asking?

I will drive steady in the wet but then I always do anyway and always keep a wary eye on the large puddles that congregate on our crap roads frown
