KU36's are noisy, it's true, but they are grippy as shit. Have heard they wear a bit faster, especially on the insides if you are going to smash some camber on. For the driving you are going to be doing Jase, I would be spending the money on a good all round tyre with a performance twist, Yoko S drive, something like that?

Nitto Tire - Fueled by Enthusiasts

Dry/Wet performance right up there, as with ride comfort, quietness etc. Best braking performance as well - jam on the brakes with these and they grip farking hard.

These one's?

Can take you for a spin when mine arrive
Found that they can support themselves quite well in the wet, but corners seemed to be a bit twitchy

Ive got the Advan sports on mine Josh. 10k odd of use. Better ride and grip than the RE050As on previously but a bit noisier on certain road surfaces. Certainly has a stiff sidewall in comparison.

I like them.
