Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 2Original post

I wouldn't go for Corsas at the front and Cups at the back. Unless you're planning to replace all 4 of course. I prefer Cups to Corsas as they stand up better on track and are fine on the road with common sense applied. I'd be taking Super Sports over Corsas for road use as they're a better all-round tyre.

I would go for the supersports if not tracking the car, what colour is it?

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Silver with black wheels,wing ends,mirrors etc

POST 8Original post

Went Supersports on mine, not quite as great as I hoped TBH. I personally hate Cups. Unless its a serious track car they are very compromised on the road. They cope just about when new with standing water but more than half worn they are positively dangerous in a a downpour (As I can vouch for personally) They cost a fortune relatively , start with 5mm of tread when new and are of course pretty soft and not long lived. If you must fit a track tyre, Pirelli Corsa every time. I found PS2s were fine as a road tyre before the current MPSS went on

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Think I,ll stick with Corsa's-thanks for the advice.
