I think you'll find they are comparing them to Cup+ on E92 and 997.

Ive not tried them yet but I think they look a fantastic tyre for all round use.

[funtime]

I cant compare them to CUPS as I've never driven on them, but I had Super Sports fitted on friday and after a weekend of good driving on them I can confirm that they are officially AWESOME :thumbs:

Obviously this is just on the road, and I'm yet to have them on the track, but compared to PS2's they are like night and day. The biggest difference I've noticed is how quickly they heat up, they offer a lot of grip very quickly. :thumbs:

Cant wait to test them on track. :smokin:

A little private one way road in the Eifel region should fit the bill :whistle: at the end of April :thumbs: I'll be there on Full PHAT 19" CUPs :smokin: for comparison purposes obviously :whistle:

Yes most definatly - CSL experiment's here we come :thumbs::hahaha:

Although I'm sure you'd be quicker with or without CUP's so it wont be much of a fair test, you can have a lap in mine by all means though

I'll have BIG breakfast before laps to give you a chance :hahaha: VERY kind offer of piloting your Old steed :thumbs:
You sure she's up to the job ? If not, I'll just borrow her wheels with the " Fancy :gayfight: CUPs "

:hahaha: thanks for the head-start!

I'm sure she would be up to the job (well I bloody hope so as that's what I've bought it for!!!) but I guess just borrowing the fancy CUP's :gayfight: would be a much better test as our suspension and brakes etc are different!

Sounds like a plan :thumbs:

I'm booked in for a set of 4xPSS on Friday, so I can give some first impressions. Price was £1066 from Blackboots/Wheels-in-Motion in Chesham, and I'm also going to get them to do a geometry check at the same time.

The price is a few quid more than Event, who were the absolute cheapest, but I've used Blackboots a few times, as they're a cut above the usual tyre places and also the only one I've yet found near here that seems to be able to balance 19s consistently well.

[still no worries]

i have just put new cup's on the rear and i am thinking do i go cup's or super sport on the front, any advice ! (fronts got a few thou left yet)

+1

If you had CUP's on the rear and Super Sports on the front I imagine it would be mega oversteer on the roads and mega understeer on the track :hahaha:
