Anyone used Colway tyres before?

Hi,

Anyone here used Colway tyres at all? Trying to find out what the 'intermediate' or 'road plus enduro rally' tyres are like for wear. Doesn't seem to be the most info available on them.

Ditchfinders.

My mate had them on at a sprint track last year. The total for 3 laps with them on was 108 seconds, he then swapped to some 9 year old mitchelin pilot sx gt's and knocked 8 seconds off that time.

Which Colways? Which compound too? Some of them don't warm up fast from what I heard.

No idea sorry 195/45 15 if that narrows the options down

Haha, probably the worst size possible to narrow it down.

I've got Colways on mine but i doubt my usage would be any help as a referance for you.

Where are you planning to get them from, Colway went belly up months ago.

Only used them on the Landy. No idea how they would be on a pure road car.

I had a set specifically for winter use. Grip was fine, but very noisy.
