I have no confidence in them compared to the TR1's and Rainsports I had on the old wheels. Can spin them up easily in the dry and in the wet can get wheelspin at 30.

I can't wait to get some grippier stuff on there.

I do not have ling longs so I don't know what you are on about.

I think you need a new clutch then.... You can't possibly drive hard and not slip a wheel now and then, unless your clutch is slipping before the tyres!


It's also not all about driving to conditions either, have you never come round an NSL corner at ~45mph on a damp road and there's been a cyclist/mobility scooter/dog walker/debris in the road that you've had to brake/swerve for? Obviously doesn't happen round town but happens all the time on the country roads round here.


Not really, clutch was done in 2010 and have only done 20k since then. Yes and 99% of the time I have had enough time to react because I have been IAM trained and am driving to the conditions, taking into account visibility and road conditions to determine what speed I travel at. Besides, the brakes do not lock the wheels anyway so having more grip is pointless and unnecessary.

Again, I do not run ling longs so I cannot comment.

I regularly drive upto 60 miles per hour and have not had this scenario. Perhaps the tyre treads are low? Hell, maybe that is what the problem is for all you guys, if the tread gets low the tyres won't grip as well, especially in the wet.
