1981 RHD X1/9
Ok, I know this has been discussed over and over again. I have a set of the Federals on my son's X and they are terrible. Major sidewall flex and out of round construction. They are so bad, I have not even tried to test the adhesion.
Now, the Achilles tires everyone talks about...are they good tires or just round and black (which cannot be said about the Federals).
I want a tire like the old Yokohamas that stick and handle good. They even look aggressive. I am tempted to buy a set of Achilles and try them but tell me, is it worth it? I drive in a spirited manner and all weather tires are not my ideal tire. The Toyos are nice but very expensive.
Thoughts? Let's put this to bed once and for all.
