    I've run Yoko V105s for ever now. Must be on my fourth set. I run stock sizes. Tried 225's but felt it interfered with the grip/handling balance so went back to 215's. For me they provide the perfect balance of grip and handling and work well in all conditions. I haven't tried PS4's and apaprently they offer more grip. I don't want more grip, I like the balance as it is. Richard at RRG gets the Yokos for a good price too which is a bonus.
    I tried Contisport Contact 5's on the rear, but found that though they are nicely progressive (no more so than the Yokos), their lateral grip wasn't as good. They had better grip off the line though, which is probably why some like them. Sidewall not quite stiff enough too. 
    The tip with the Yoko V105s is to go for the extra load option to get a stiffer sidewall. 
    How much does rich get the yokos for Lauren?

    Demontweeks isn't that far and has a wide range to try on. GSM in Nottingham also carries helmets I believe. Autosport at the NEC in January may also be worth a visit. 

    Thanks deacon, demon tweeks is only an hour and half away, and it's where I was looking at some.

    Have you seen this new edition? it looks great but looks like its only available in Japan.
    Have Gazoo Racing taken over TRD ? as Gazoo racing sounds much better than TRD (turd )

    It looks nice! Although from what I can work out without knowing Japanese mostly cosmetic with changes to suspension, brakes, LSD? And some bracing under the car.

    Just a general thought, do people fancy another meeting before the years out, perhaps using xmas as an excuse?
    There's been a few successful meetings in both Birmingham and Essex so maybe something between somewhere like Oxford or Northampton.  
    If there's enough interest I'll volunteer to find somewhere and book a table.
    Let me know your thoughts guys, just an idea
    I'll be around both... Depends when it is

    Was planning on going second hand, but saw tarmac sports have a 0%finance. So I'm tempted by the invidia n1, seems to have alot of drone though. But I don't do much motorway miles anymore.
