I would double check if they are rs or rs-r.

I read a few reviews that they are good (not as good as Advans but good).
I was thinking to try them on my Z3 once I finish the R888s and the A048s.
I have a collection you see

Assuming Brie is the better option, then I suspect Edam, or maybe even Gruyere.

Shite Tyres, cheap for a reason.

If you report they are good then you are shite too


I thought the a048 were good, but the cups were another step up from them.

Buy cheap buy twice, but I suppose being a few seconds a lap slower is not the end of the world, and it's the fun that counts. But all your fancy engine work and mapping is pointless if you are scrimping on the only thing that has contact with the Tarmac.

On the other, being reasonable, hand....

Cups are an expensive tyre to ruin as a beginner, aren't they shim? these would be an ideal tyre for a newcomer to learn his and his cars limits, without hurting his pocket too much.
