Amjad Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I've heard they're still good with some heat in them if it's wet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 You have to drive hard as hell to get heat into them in the wet lol where did you hear that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 A few mates with Hondas running them, but I agree it must be hard to build heat in those conditions Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TimD Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Friend of mine uses AD08R's as wets for racing as he isn't allowed to run a wet tyre, they work really well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 It will be interesting to see what they perform like if it's raining at coombe I have a whole day to play Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 My AD08Rs aren't too bad in the wet, much better than I expected them to be to be honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Agree ad08's aren't that bad in the wet. Granted theres far superior but for a summer tyre they're reasonable Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Indeed, I've spoken to quite a few people running these now and they seem to be a safe bet. Also being used as control tyre in civic cup! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Yea I did hear that, my supplier sponsors them and was the one that advised me against them Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Matt1878 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 so if someone wanted to purchase a set would you be able to help? obvoiusly with some money to make it worth you/your dads time Many have asked and I'm afraid not. Well, I've asked for other people and he basically just said he can't take the piss as they will show up on the company account. I'm part of the account so it kinda tracks purchases etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
