thank you for going through the effort of creating as much of a controlled environment in testing these tires. Cheers!

Your videos are great, keep up the good work.

Loved the doubled screen so we see how and where each tire are faster.. would love to see u compare more tires..

Great work on the video, really nice to see a genuine comparative test, same car, same day, same driver - bonus points being Aussie. The side by side footage and corner speed difference made clear was a nice touch too. Re, time difference, you could always express it as a percentage (1.3%) and mention that it’s equivalent to 2 seconds on a 2.5 minute lap. I’d love to see the A050 vs the A052 as well as the Hankook RS4 or the new RE71rs. Those last three would make a great test vs the Zestino.

I had a pretty interesting experience with the 07RS. The deterioration between (hot weather) track days was a little disappointing. I ran a set of A052 before these, and found them pretty similar to the Zestinos when fresh. But by the second track day (5 heat cycles), A052s were still sticky, whilst the Zestinos had gone all hard, with clear evidence of overheating and a lot of the pace was gone. By the third track (10 or so heat cycles), the Zestinos were greasy and unpredictable. A052s were still pretty good, thought more badly worn.

Hey mate, awesome video. How do you find the noise levels when your street driving. Not as bad as the r888r.

Thanks for sharing i’m debating to get the zestino just to give them a try on my coupe quattro

Can you compare them with a052? You tried only medium compound? In my country is only medium and don’t know If I can try them, because I’m competing on timeattack, but on long tracks (4200-6000m). Want to be sure, that these medium give me better grip than a052

Hi there, are you running a 265 square setup, what wheels are you running offset etc, looks nice by the way.

Unless you are competing for money, save your money and buy Zestino.

Thanks for the video mate, just for context of how fast you are what is your driving background?

Thanks for a great video man, really appreciate it. I’m currently running RS4s on my GR Yaris and am up for tyres so I found this video really helpful. I’ve been wanting to go a little faster but I’m shy with my wallet to go to the A052 (not even the A050). The Zestinos are really well priced but I was unsure of what to expect. Can you tell me how many days and how many road KM you’ve got out of them? My RS4 are 4 heavy days in and 6000km, tread is still good but I feel the times are getting harder to achieve as they cycle out. I haven’t been kind to them, though in my dream world I was hoping for more (lol). How’d you go with these?

Nice one mate, I was expecting the gap to be bigger but yeah had it been the GP circuit I think 1.5 -2 sec difference. Thoughts?

Hi. Did you test the zestino daily driving. How they behave in rain ?

Very nice comparison. Did you ever get a chance to try the RE71RS? I think the A050s will still be a little quicker but I wonder how much? The RE71RSs look to be much better value at the moment at around $500 a tyre!

Hello I have a stage 2+ 335i n54 pushing around 420whp and I’m looking for a grippy tire for the street. I don’t have much money to work with, is the Zestino Gredge 07RS a good tire for dig grip and grip around the bends? I can get 2 07RS tires for $350 and anything else is $300 a tire.

Hey, I heard stories of the zestinos blowing out sidewalls, I'm assuming you ran the supersprint series in 2020 where they were the tire. Were there any similar issues? Have you tried the zestino circuits?

Unsure how you found the Zestinos in anyway comparable to a properly engineered competition tyre like the A050 in regard to lap times.....unless you are not pushing your car hard enough to find the full grip level of the A050s or have a setup issue? In my experience the Zestino RS are way slower than A052 and RE71RS...both of which are slightly slower than the medium compound A050. The Zestinos didn't like heat and the front left tyre delaminated around QR timeattack sessions on other competitors cars.

What do you think about the fp8000 otshu?

How about the super popular Nankang AR1? They are well priced
