| Re: The Matchbox 600 SEL Thread zeq - 9/2/2006 3:28 PM I wonder if we put that kind of racing tyres on our W140s. How will it look? I dunno, but GoodYear tires are not very good. LOL. they are used mostly on Ford Police cars and Stuff over here.  | ||

I dunno, but GoodYear tires are not very good. LOL. they are used mostly on Ford Police cars and Stuff over here. :banghead: Well, Currently I'm using Bridge stone tyres. They are very expesnive. I'm thinking of using GT radial tyres the next time. Indonesian made tyres. Half the price of Bridgestone and Firestone. http://www.gt-tires.com/ They also made tyres for pirelle. It is interesting how they have Bridgestone and Firestone in Brunei, even though they are US tires. US tires are not very good, IMO. | ||
