    Is it possible that anyone could invent a tyre that squeals more than the Dunlop sport 200? Any back road thrash sounds like you've got that annoying tat from the Laguna advert sitting next you.

    A guy at work told me he used to work beside a guy who did that all the time! He never ever acknowledged him doing it and he eventually stopped - must admit i would have thrown him out the car the second time he tried it!

    My Goodyears are pretty quiet - only squeal when you dump the clutch/ corner going along cobbled streets

    I think the Dunlops will be getting swapped for a set of goodyears then when they wear out. It really does get annoying.

    what tyre pressures are you at?

    My dunlops hardly ever squeal (Despite considerable provocation!)

    My old Mini on 145 Pirellis was a different matter...

    See to be honest, I haven't looked at my tyre pressure for a while. I think I'll do that on me way home tonight.
