    GR86 GR86 - What wheels and tyres are you thinking about?

    I am at -1.5 as well on 225's with no issues. The only thing I have noticed was a little bit more body roll, however I changed from PS4 to Conti Sport 7, therefore the brand could have an impact on that. Apart from it and taking in consideration the prices and choices I am not going back to...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    If you're looking for grip you won't be disapointed. The ContiSport 7 are great, the grip compared to PS4 is noticeable, the only thing that might not be as good is the tire wear. Not to mention the price which is quite competitive if you're looking to go 225 instead of 215.

    GR86 "That's a fresh whip bruv"; or the Toyota GR86 collated feedback thread

    Yeah I had to slow down on the a225, the rocks hitting the bottom of the car was hurting me to hear 😂 From that route the highlights for me are 3 to 4, 7-8 and and 8-9 from four Elms. RoadStr for me it’s the best route planning tool, but doesn’t work great with Apple Car play, it doesn’t center...

    GR86 "That's a fresh whip bruv"; or the Toyota GR86 collated feedback thread

    I really like that road, even though it can be quite narrow at some points. I normally do this route https://referal.roadstr.io/c0RL/agismxu8 If you ever want to do a early Sunday blast at some point let me know 🙂

    We almost crossed each other then 😄 I was there at 6am yesterday. Stopped at gracious lane for a quick pick before heading home

    They sit quite square I didn’t align after installing them though, will do next week. Hopefully it might be that lack of alignment

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    Following up on this (my own 😅) Went for a little drive today, the tires have a lot of grip, however I can feel the car has a lot more body roll, potentially because I changed to 225 on the stock rims 🤷‍♂️ Does anyone is using 225s on the stock wheels?

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    After 12k miles and 2 track days I have changed the tires to continental spot contact 7 (225/40/18). They seem quite gripy so far, but I'm not sure they will last as much as the PS4's. I wanted to fit PS4S, but 40£ difference each tire lead me to try the Continentals

    GR86 Broken

    That is a big caveat, I use 5w30 so warranty is not voided. However I would love to fit an accusump & oil cooler, but if I do that then warranty will be voided for sure, therefore is a no go

    GR86 Broken

    I am also concerned about this, however, I did reach out to my toyota dealer a few weeks ago to have the Oil pan removed to check for RTV. They advised me not to do it, because in order to do that they would need to remove the whole engine, blah blah blah (bollock). To a point that I told them...

    GR86 Seen Through Glass/Behind The Glass - Drive my Ride - GR86

    The only point where I agree with them is that this car scope is a niche market. Perhaps I'm biased, but claiming this car lacks soul is, in my opinion, a lie. Comparing it to a hot hatch doesn't make much sense to me either. They haven't pushed the car harder to make such assumptions. If they...

    GR86 Exhausts

    I have the Cobra Res and last time I was quoted for the non-res pipe (only) was 244£+shipping. Since I only use the car on the weekends I regret not going for the non-res (it was cheaper actually). But I still enjoy the resonator as much.

    GR86 Neptune Blue (Dunfermline)

    Thanks a lot! I have been looking at those wheels as well, they look really good! I'd love the titan 7 t-s5 or Apex vs-5rs, but finding it hard to justify the money.

    GR86 GR86 - GT86 Performance Pack Brembo Brake Upgrade Thread

    I have been considering the EBC balanced Brake kit https://www.ebcracing.co.uk/products/ebc-apollo-big-brake-kit-330m-bbk031-front?variant=44080507289887 It only has the calipers for the fronts, but includes pads and brakes lines for the rears as well. For 1495£ doesn't seem too bad

    GR86 Losing Traction

    Could it be "glazed" tires? It's unlikely, but could happen The front tires are the same brand? Also, does the front feel slippery as well when turning a little bit faster, or just the rear?

    GR86 Insurance

    Same here. The insurance this year was went through the roof.. I was getting basacly double prices what I paid last year. Ben from @HowdenSpecialistInsurance was able to provide me with a much better quote then what I was getting online, closer to what I paid last year.
