I too am on the multispoke 16s. I have always been happy with the grip of the Nexens and when 'playing', corner with the expectation of that level of grip. I found the Event tyres on the front went 'light' when trying to take the same corner at the same speed.
It's what you're used to I suppose.
In comparison to the Nexen 6000, the Event tyres were lacking.
Interestingly now that I've had a good play with the car on wet roads the Nexen 6000 on the rear seem to be likely to give up before the Uniroyals on the front!
David,
The Events are on the rear fronts are Runway Enduro 916's that were one the project VVC when I bought her. I am running the 16" LE Multispoke wheels (75th Anni/Freestyle type) so have never had her on "Good" tyres and I don't hang about when the chance comes.. Once we gett the rest sorted out and one set of these wheels refurbished then we shall be on the hunt for new tyres.
Hi, dropped the front subframe today. Went quite well considering I only have a drive, a jack and two axle stands. One rear mounting bolt rounded but a hammered on socket got that. Snapped one other rear bolt so I guess I'm drilling that and fitting a nut and bolt.
