Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. I would like to ask if a GTR R35 is suitable using a Achilles ATR Sport tyre. I read and saw almost 90% of GTR owners are using Dunlop or maybe Bridgestone. So I'm just curious whether a Achilles tyre would be fine for my car. I'm just using the car for daily driving and may be speeding a little sometime :biggrin:

just my opinion.
it does not look right for an expensive car to have cheap tyre.
but its up to you, your car, your money..
anyway GTR :top:

Tyre makes the biggest difference to handling, acceleration & stopping. If you want to stop in time everytime, you choose the best tyres you can afford. If you don't want to stop in time, make sure you hit a tree and not a passerby. Cheers!

you can try to find this Achilles ATR tire but when come to grip level stock tire Dunlop or Bridgestone is very good. my friend GTR is considering to use Toyo R888

u can also keep a sets of R888 with other rims and use it when on track day. Use atr sport for daily driving.. thats a good plan..

But not sure if they have runflats, but runflats are more expensive. If not, you need to carry repair kit.....
