aiya didn't use the @ function tongue.gif

umm i think the iswara haven't been on the ad08r since last year, tires still kept in the kitchen and they still look damn new.
i've ran it as daily ride time to time (because it's still fun as hell) and had numerous track days with it.

maybe my iswara no power can't push the tires much, as the treads are still very new looking rofl.
so yea, it's probably good in wet still since treads still very healthy.

a bit neglecting the iswara lately as it's for the most part driven by my sis as i am focused on the inspira lately.
will be fitting these same tires on the inspira as well soon enough so stay tuned wink.gif

One of the functional reason is that your gearing is a bit shorter from the reduction in overall tyre height so slightly better acceleration

i'd reckon weight would play a more prominent role in acceleration, however these tires aren't light at all to say the least sad.gif

aih give females your car to drive and you'll have to be prepared for the worse.

in fact, my sis just bumped the iswara and the fender was slightly dented and the bumper clip broken so the side of the bumper was sticking out a bit cry.gif

that said, i think a lot of people don't really dare to push xtreme tires during wet as they have the same perception as semi slicks.
do take note that there are semi slicks being cheaper than the ad08r and a lot criticized this tire being not worth it considering semi slicks do perform better in dry than the ad08r.
"why pay more for less performance", although they didn't exactly think on the whole package or maybe they just don't need it (eg: longer tire wear, lesser road noise, better wet performance)
