Mazoc 2013 bbq - CANCELLED!

You'll probably be better off getting the RS3's. You will need the extra grip with all that power from the turbo. Doesn't make sense to spend all that money on

Doesn't make sense to spend all that money on the turbo kit and then cheap out on tires. What good is all that power if you can't put it to the ground.

Yeah they are just an old production. There is a thread on them somewhere on here. Everyone who has purchased them say they are in perfect shape.

And my current rears have 6/32

2 305's run $458
2 245's run $318

I'm assuming you don't already have RS3's so I say buy 4 new RS3's and get them as wide as you can fit. Definitely want to make sure you have a matching front and rear set.

Low treadwear like that usually means the tires have more grip.

Yeah that is just not in the cards right now unless someone would buy my current rears.

I might just buy new front vreds. Its just the RS3s are sooooo cheap.

well in some cases with track or super performance tires they always have low tread wear. but my PSS's have tremendous grip and are a 300 tread wear.
