    altho the T1Rs were shite in the dry they were savage in the wet at goldstone, now weather thats down to the surface or what I'm not sure....
    yes this is true! i thought shane was going straight into the wall! there was no grip wat so ever!

    If I ran 16" on the front would that change anything? I.e. staggered, with 17" on the back?

    I run Hankook ventus on the front of mine, there the road tyre that hankook have and I think there a great tyre! Have them on my road car aswell and the wear is very good on them, and there cheap! I had RS-2s on the 5 series i had before and really I dont think there much difference in the grip between them and the ventus! And honestly you won't want a seriously grippy tyre in drifting, the front needs some give aswell

    Ive never tried any other tyre up front than hankook coz i like the way the car is with them
