Earplugs? Trip to a couple of heavy metal concerts? ;)

But er.. definitely not the Neutons. Thought something had gone wrong when I put them back on after the UG8s :-[

Must admit, I've not been impressed by them ::) Just hope they (and the Alpha's on the front) will last out until I have done the suspension work and had the set up done :-\

I have to say I'm very impressed with the new tyres I have on my 18's.  No intrusive tyre noise, no tram lining, excellent grip levels in wet and dry conditions...

However, I don't drive that hard nowadays, and they aren't a premium brand, so I'll shut up!  ;D :D :-X

You better come round here and take it for a spin then Jeff. Both hands on the wheel at all times. Bend it you mend it.... Actually, no. You bend, it you pay for me to mend it. ;)

Those aren't the tyres you're looking for.
Your SC3s are fine.
Move along.
