Maxisport RB5's

Road Legal apparently....185/55/R15....

Bet they are not too hot in the rain though!

Ooh, how much?[/list]

[Wobba]

About £71-75 each I think. I think that's about the same as the Advan Neova's I have on now.

They arent maxisport, they are maxsport, and are nothin to do with maxis, and are in fact made by dunlop, model code rb5

I use them occasionally if I want to cheaply make a car corner faster, they have really good grip but the sidewalls are very flimsy so they give you good corner speeds but lousy feel.

About 75 quid a corner or so in 15"

Low speed rating too as they are a remould, but shouldnt be an issue on track.

PS

The softest compound is really only good for a few laps, and even the firmer ones dont last many miles at all.

So the sidewalls suck? Bugger. Don't like soft sidewalls!

Yeah the sidewalls are pretty soft, no bad thing if you are tarmac rallying though I guess, but on really grippy smooth trackday tarmac you do notice them rolling around on the wheel.
