The guy at the garage that fitted them didn't rate them (he thought they were crap tyres)
He'd never tried them on any car though.
He also hates all BMWs.....
He also didn't know how to fit the tyres correctly (yellow dot next to valve)
Not badfor a tyre fitter..
So his opinion was taken with a pinch of salt.
I'd had good experiences with Falken in the past so wanted to give them a punt, glad I did.

Are you still in Belgium? If so, whereabouts? I literally only know 1 tyre guy (runs out of a tiny little shop in Overijse) who will fit tyres NOT bought at the centre at exorbitant prices. Curious as to where you go to have your tyres fitted.
 
Any recommendations for a set of tyres on a WRX STI (2006) - Been very happy with Uniroyal Rainsport 3s on previous cars im aware they are a pretty soft try but only do 5-6k a year

How are you finding the RFT version of the AS3? I'm set on that tyre, and may opt for the RFT version for the reasons you say while I'm still under warranty. Can't be bothered with the hassle of arguing with them

Just ordered two of these for the front so I must like them.
 
What a 'beautiful' tyre. PS4S

Silent, not crashy, great fun turn-in and endless grip.
I can finally put power down in my car FWD 265bhp.

Car obviously feels faster now:D literally/actually making me laugh out loud I can stomp the loud pedal in 1st/2nd now with abandon.

Highly recommended. Oh and they look smart too.

I went black circles as at the time with a discount code they had worked out bit cheaper than tyre leader though have used them before and currently got some PS4's coming for the gfs car
 
@Steedie if you search on Facebook for Ben patey. He does some stonking deals on tyres. I got my ps4s for 1/6 off internet prices at the time. He might do some as3 RFT. Won't hurt to ask.

blackcircles.com on the michelin they have offer if buy 4 save £40. I could get them from one of their approved fitters for literally the same price but its the time factor. my mechanic fits tyres on the side so rarely have to wait for the 5-6 customers before to get them fitted. my local tyre places u cna sometime swait 1= hour if u need 4 tires done so will do the supply only then pay him the fititng
 
My friend and I both got a new set of tyres the other day, I got a full set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres for £630, he got a full set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres for £1450, both very happy with the new rubber (me especially as mine were super bald on the inside due to speed bumps).
