SPIN CLASS with TheStradman! NOW My AMG GT Black Series NEEDS New Tires
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
When you need new tires, there's nothing better than a spin class! I'm with @TheStradman to kill off the set on my AMG GT Black Series ready to get some new ones on for the tour to continue. It turns out I managed a good job of that... these are toast and destroyed far beyond expectations!
After a visit to James' new Dream House and garage, he's kindly introduced me to the team at Envision, who prepared in advance a new set for my car. Having somehow survived 5,000 miles of driving in the United States including a track day at Circuit of the Americas, and the mileage covered beforehand, it's safe to say that they are really onto the last legs now. Knowing they are to be thrown out, and thankfully having found some 100 octane fuel, it can only mean getting rid of the in the best way possible!
With over 800hp to the rear wheels, the GT Black Series has no issues lighting up the rears in style, with a little opportunity to run through the 9 Stage AMG Traction Control as well. However, the most fun comes with it all off and a whole lot of tire smoke being chucked out. Upon inspection at Envision however, it becomes clear quite how much these shredded up and it's a good thing the replacement set are available to be swapped straight on.
I've chosen to not go with a direct swap to a new set of Cup 2 R, primarily with longevity in mind and as we head towards winter months thinking about the potential weather. In their place, I've gone for a set of Cup 2 from the regular AMG GT R which are still very much a track/performance tyre, but just take that top few percent away from being impossible to use if the weather turns against us on a cold day.
Thanks to Envision for their help to get these swapped over so efficiently:

And of course to James for being a fabulous host, it's always amazing to meet up and film with somebody so inspirational:

(N.B. I'm writing 'tires' not 'tyres', because 35% of this channel's audience is from the US, versus 12% from the UK, and as such it is dictated by analytics.)
Thanks for watching, Tim

Tim must be one of the most genuine people on KZread. I love the straightforward and humble approach. I was blown away that he took time to explain the reasoning behind the “tires” writing. Keep it up man, you deserve every bit of respect that you have from your KZread peers.

Stradman has a stradgirl in the front seat👀
The Strad-Shmee duo in this tour was just legendary, if only James let you have a ride in his 1800HP BUGKLR GTR as the sense of speed is just mad haha (also the fact the color matches your AMG BS 😆)

what, Mexico? really? no way, nowadays you also need to go to "Mexico" for only hooning around? it used to be for speeding only. if I now extrapolate that tend, in a decade or two, one would need to go to Mexico to have a shit; that's sad, kinda.

I always love the collab with stradman such a cool did and cool house
when the garage was first being built it looked MASSIVE so i though he would be able to fit all his cars in it but actually the bat cave is a really cool idea
That GT3 RS is mental! 100% great looking wheels on it!

Love that 812 spec, MERCEDES is looking great Tim
2 of my favourite automotive KZreadrs. .. Tim looked like you were having a blast doing those O nuts.
Wow, well let's say you got your money out of those old tires. The best feeling is when you new rubber on your whip. Nice!! Because of you, I now follow Stradman! 😎👍🏽
Incredible to see the difference in between the spins with and without the traction control, also that gt3 sounds like a beast.
The bat cave needs a tunnel and second exit by the mountains somewhere
Thanks, Tim and all… Always of interest in Handling, safety, & Good Care stuff……..Interestingly, I just switched to Winter/ Studs , & Summers off: on my two vehicle’s, among other Preps for black,ice/ Severe here in HELENA Valley, MT..
You did a right proper job of roasting those tires, Tim! 🤜💥🤛

To be honest tim did the right thing to paint the black series solarbeem yellow As it looks so stunning when i saw it in person in dubai 😍😍 Specifically with the sun hitting it🔥🔥
Hi Tim, i’am fan from Brazil, i just want to say that i have been watching your channel for years now and I LOVE IT, your videos are amazing and so well made, i wish that we here in Brazil had a channel like yours, lucky me, that now’s english 😂, wish you the best!
Love spin class with you cause it rare
I enjoy the multi-video collab. It doesn’t feel as rushed
Thought I'd tuned in to DDE for a moment The Tyre Slayer !! That place looks familiar, did you smoke the GT500 there last time ? Apart from the.SLS Black, these two are probably my two absolute favourite cars. Hope Strad goes with Novitek for the 812, the exhaust is incredible
I love seeing this collaboration. You guys make great content together. Your 2 styles compliment each other very well. I think James needs to make a trip out to the UK with one of his cars to visit Tim at the Shmuseum and maybe take a trip to Germany for a hot lap around the Nürburgring. That would be absolutely EPIC! :)
"Daddy chill" *GT3RS continues to redline it*
