TTR 509 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 PS4's 100%. @Minion has had both and will tell you PS4's are the way forward 3 Eddie, Deacon and Minion reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minion 132 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 Like @TTR said I have had both & would have both again. The v105's are a very good tyre which grip well and give a nice gradual slip so you can feel the car trying to kick out but the PS4's have so much grip it's crazy! I can still get the back out on my car by either flicking it or kicking the clutch so that's not a problem but the speeds the tyres grip at are pure awesome and create massives chesire cat style grins everytime you corner! I know that when I need a new set of tyres I will 100% be going for PS4's again. I know they are a little more to buy (not excessive amounts more) but god they are worth it!! Plus thanks to @TTR I know what they are capable in the hands of an expert driver Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stutopia 158 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 I'm very much enjoying the PS4s, the grip is superb and I was amazed at how much stick they could take before giving up, even in the wet. Here's a more impartial Evo view. 1 TTR reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have the PS4's and the Cup 2's. I haven't done any objective tests but on feel alone I'd say the PS4's have about 80% of the grip in the dry of the Cup 2's and way more grip in the wet. For a road tyre compared to a more track focused tyre the dry grip is just crazy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am leaning more toward PS4s, it is about 20 pounds more per corner but i think they worth it 1 Minion reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thetyrant 30 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 Depends what you want as in grip or slidy fun, the V105 is a budget tyre with decent performance and ive run them on a couple of cars now, Michelins are a premium tyre so offer better grip everywhere but you pay the extra for it, ive found the V105 is a decent allrounder for the money and allow nice progressive slides if you so wish which adds to the fun, however if grip is what you want then as other have said PS4 is far superior tyre, be aware though too much grip can make a car boring after awhile 1 jevvy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stutopia 158 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 I hate too much grip, especially when it comes to stopping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cropzy 66 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 I have a similar question. I guess this answers it. I was looking at R888R's but they would be rubbish in the wet. Looks like I am getting PS4's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foulsmell 120 Report post Posted August 2, 2017 These agree with PS4s. Test car was an 86 too. http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Article/2017-Sport-Auto-UHP-and-Track-Day-Tyre-Test.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
