If is good enough to grip and hold your 200hp FWD car, then it should be good for other normal cars out there.

Yup, that is what I normally tell friends who drives NA with lesser power.......If is good enough to grip and hold your 200hp FWD car, then it should be good for other normal cars out there.
Unless they are those who corner like crazy. But how is the grip for this tyre during wet like when you are accelerating during first gear? 2 days ago when driving during drizzle, I was turning out from junction in first gear. I din't press much on throttle while turning and when I aligned the steering straight, I press more on the throttle. Wheel starts spinning when I go over 3000 rpm and I din't let go of the throttle. It continues until the RPM reaches like 5000 rpm.Yup, that is what I normally tell friends who drives NA with lesser power.......
Did not try them out in the wet. As posted at the beginning page, it was raining heavily on the day of installation, and it felt pretty good in the rain even though not run in yet.
The idea is to let the tyres grip then accelerate. Too much power release immediately the tyres loose traction then will continue wheel spin only.....lolAs long as can grip during low gear acceleration then that is good.
You are right. Now during rain, I really need to be more careful with the clutch release and RPM timing. Anything more than 2500rpm or releasing the clutch a bit too quickly will result in wheel spin. On dry, it is okay, but not on wet.The idea is to let the tyres grip then accelerate.

Mine normal tyres duraplus only. More like cheap tyres...Tyre not meant for wet mah......lol
Speaking of tyres, I think there are special racing tyres for wet conditions isn't it?
Nope, wet just more grooves and softer compound. Check out F1 dry and wet tyres....
Seen those before. Also seen some cars slick tyres with more thread and grooves. Why not people use tyres like Advan A006 on cars? Performance tyres and still provide wet grip.Nope, wet just more grooves and softer compound. Check out F1 dry and wet tyres....
Racing tyres super soft compound. Use daily, probably will be changing tyres very regularly.....lol
You have not seen like those actual F1 race when during race they switch from dry to rain tyres because of rain, but rain was short then after few laps the track begins to dry. Those still on wet tyres on dry track, the compounds starts to wear faster and melts too because of the heat generated....
i still remember m.shumacher on rain tyre till end of race. He drive the car to wet spot to cool down the tyre. Fuhhh....You have not seen like those actual F1 race when during race they switch from dry to rain tyres because of rain, but rain was short then after few laps the track begins to dry.
