j141 started following Lotus Emira and Tyres again (sorry) - go with the obvious choice or...........

Thanks for all the useful info everyone, I am due a full set on my 410, I currently have Cup 2's all round. It looks like the consensus for fast road is PS4S as the Cups are widow makers in the cold which it is 40-50% of the year and the wear rate is awful My only worry is the car will loose some of its handling if I switch, there must be a reason they spec'd the Cup2's? I am only fast road, no track days, what do people who have switched think?

I think you are bang on the money with this, no way the Turbo 2.0l AMG4 will have more BHP than the S/C 3.5l V6 and the AMG will be the cheaper option.
-
I think there has been a miscommunication somewhere re the engines I have seen a few outlets say the same thing, this is what it says on the Lotus site I think the 4 cylinder will be 60k 360bhp the v6 will be 70-80k 400 bhp
-
If they bring out a decent Evora final edition with digital dash etc I honestly think I would rather have that
-
Other than the Evija if this is their only car going forward I expect there will be shit loads of variants of all tune levels and trim, 4 cylinder light weight aimed at the Elise/Exige crowd and the V6 aimed at the Evora crowd etc etc
-
Im holding out for the Emira GT430 Sport
-
I expect this will be the entry level version, they wlil see the Evora off with some Final Editions then usher in some tastier versions of it
-
I agree with Mark, it looks nice but thats where it ends, sub 400bhp 4.5 sec 0-60 no thanks

https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-news/first-official-pictures/lotus/emira/ Give me the Emira's performance specs The 3.5-litre V6 will produce 394bhp with either a manual or auto transmission, while the AMG motor, which arrives later, is good for 355bhp and drops CO2 below 180g/km. Lotus is targeting a sub-4.5-second 0-62mph time and a top speed of up to 180mph If this is all true its very disappointing! I was hoping for 450bhp minimum, guess I will wait for the S2 or a decent special edition

Where to buy 410 tyres?
j141 replied to j141's topic in Ride/Handling/Suspension/Brakes/Wheels/Tyres
That gives me a bit of a dilemma I had pretty much decided I was going to switch my 410 to PS4S for the extra wet/cold performance and economy when the time came but after reading this now im not so sure, I dont know if I would be able to tell the difference in all honesty? -
I listened to a lot of exhausts for for my S and the 2bular was by far the best sounding its just a shame they take so long to get but it was worth the wait
