The R-I-M-S are coming...

Me so excited...

Pls advice me - what is a good rubber for 19"? Need it to be fairly quiet, but great grip in dry & wet.

Apart from 19" (big 'nuff, eh! ) no idea as to the specs of the R-I-M-S.

Me need tech advice pls cos me no experience with rubber...

Thanx

 

wow rubber.....

yours 19" ah...so power.

There are many brands around man. Durex...Madonna....Vivid...There are also some Jap specs one like Okamoto.

they are all rather quiet....good grip in all conditions. Some of them have pretty good grips as they are ribbed.

And since you no experience using rubber...be safe not sorry ok. Use something that can last longer ok.

 

I have seen very good reviews on Michelin PS2 and Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3... Michelins are pricey but dunno abt goodyear.

What rims are you getting? Has to be BLING right?

 

his coming rims are Veilside Andrew Bacarrat. Ultimate bling!!!!

as for rubbers, DUrex is the best thus far......

OK, jokes aside, budget conscious will opt for Yokohama Advan neova ad07. Bridgestone S03 are pretty good too. If u have a large pocket, which u definitely have, opt for fab8's recomendation. Very good tires. But be reminded that u r paying a premium price for michelin's advertisement in F1 grandprix.....

But those issue by SAF during Overseas training is the safest. cos they are super THICK.....

 

Funny - thought some ladies may ask to see the 19"

 

Thanx for not getting distracted by my usual nonsense (although ladies - the 19" is for REAL! )

May go for the Michelin - then me can get a sticker of that marshmellow fella

Hope the rubber lasts - my present set lasted over 2 years now

As for the rims, our resident "Black Knight" has, as always, his way of getting the low-down on things. And yes, it will be

 

Dear Mr Batman (a.k.a. Dark Knight) sir,

You r the large-pocketed one. Saw the size of your mansion and all your toys. Also know u own Wayne Enterprises. And the takings on your latest movie - KILLER!!!

Please gimme a cash grant so I can bring light (or bling) into the dark lives of those around us.

Yours very goodly,
Naughty Boy

P.S. I will make a great Robin, or so I'm told...

 

Thanx for your suggestions - unfortunately none fit 19"

 

[QUOTE=morganoh]Not really - heard that it's better to use 2 and Tiger Balm in between as a warning system... But me really have no idea... Me good!

 

Naughty Boy. Post the pic of the new rims for people to see.

 

Would love to share - but... not in yet...

 

hahahahaha..... u n ur "19incher" tool!!!!

we will make a great pair!!!!! batman n robin.... but since when am i the batman??? badman maybe???

 

sorry, no surprise....

there u go

 

"Black Knight" = "Dark Knight" =

As for Badman - let's just say we can both be REALLY bad, eh!

 

HEY! Nice pic of the R-I-M-S!

But... your pic ain't of the chrome! And chrome will hopefully get me

 

If IT is really 19" .... i think not only the ladies would like to see, even the guys would like to as well.

Michelin PS2 is the one to go for (i'm getting that too) ... $600 ++ for 1 tyre

You are also joining the another black knight with all your bling bling.

 

Yo NB, can share how much those wheels are costing you? I love those rims too... but m not as bold as you, would love to just settle for the silver ones. Are those all in 2 piece rim?

As for rubbers, you might wanna check out the new Falken RT615. Those looks really tasty, not sure if they are available in 19" though...

 

bro m, juz a hint for u, it is a 5 digit figure without the rubbers for the chrome ones....... silver ones cost a high 4 digit......

et NB brief u on dat...... the wheels are the ultimate bling!!!! Time to invest in metal or chrome polish, NB!!

 

I'm so out of this league man!

 

Sorry - me only play "u show me yours; me show u mine" with the ladies

S$600+ Will have to re-consider...

And yes - me will soon join the black knight. New name - Naughty Bling!

 

Like said, roughly 5-digits... but wait 'til u see it in the flesh, er, metal!

U quite the brave man yourself! It's not about bold, it's all about

All the Baccarats are 3-piece forged - and STUNNING

 

OH YES! Me been waiting for the moment! Will caress and probe and *censored* every square inch of it - all 19"!

Any suggestions on polish?

 

Not really. It's really a question of - DO U WANNA

 

meguairs is the way to go!!! the chrome polish! me using it now to polish exhaust. Very good!
