RSR Fuch Finishing

[griffiths_r]

i like my R's. think they have much better grip than anything else i have every driven with (which isn't much in the scheme of things i know).

but yes, they do throw stones. ask clyde.

Depending on the tread pattern 'R's can also be a pain in the wet. Haven't got around to replacing the front's on mine yet (which I have been advised are too worn) but I wouldn't have got more than 6000kms out of them.

As Jappy mentioned, for mine the biggest pain is the noise they make.

John, love the avatar.

That's begging to become the front of the official Typ901 tee shirt.

Funny you say that, I've got a graphic designer mate having a look at it now Iit would make a great Sunday Tshirt ). See this thread http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showt...=464367&page=3 It's what got me started...

rich - what pressures do you run them at? how hard do you push them when they are cold?

i am soft. i don't push my tyres hard at all.

usually try to run at about 32 psi front and back.

really, the only time the tyres get pushed is on the thredbo trip or swimming.

oh, and i usually wait for the car to warm up before pushing

Yes John, the moderators and Avatar police were about to step in and comment on your new "look".

I too have followed that thread on Pelican. That guy is a real moron and just wont listen, will he ?

But where did you find the image ? Just googled asshat ??

Hi Phil

I recalled seeing the graphic a while ago and the thread reminded me of what a chuckle I'd had when I first saw it.

Let me know if Jesus is a little too saucy for the site or if there are any rectal milliners offended and I'll bring back Mr Miagi... :p

Cheers

probably getting a little off topic here - but i suspect you're not really getting them hot enough to really work, so you won't see a big transition from cold grip levels to hot grip levels. i assume you're running 32 psi cold - which is about 6 or 7 psi too high. you should aim for about 33/34 psi when they are hot.

My steelies are back at the powder coaters now, should be ready on Monday, sorry Matt, I cant remember the silver I chose, I'll check when they are ready.
I also have a set of deep sixes, that should be ready soon (week or two). They are at Harvey Weidman's in the US. They will be finished in the factory style.

[griffiths_r]

thanks ryan... will let them out a bit... so i should be aiming for 26 cold or 34 hot... ?

another idea for a technical session...
