Tyres road/Track

[Admanirv]

I'm due to collect my ph2 172 at the weekend its just going to be used as amatuer track car and on the road occasionally.

What tyres do people recommend on a budget without them lasting 5 mins?

Me and my cousin are amateur at best and wont be spend all day however i don't want anything that will be terrible on the road or cost a fortune, i have 16 oz superturismo's.

Thanks

Just get yourself a cheap arse set of 15" wheels and some part worn proper track tyres from Ebay and then just average tyres for the 16" which are good in the wet, so they can be used on wet track days.

This would be cheaper than paying £400-500 for decent track/road tyres on the 16"s.

On my civic the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A have lasted bloody ages (2 x track days and 2 x Nurburgring trips (approx. 8 laps) as well as a trips to Wales and Fort William from Manchester.

Still on 5mm - obviously not as sticky or firm as track tyres but excellent tyres.

Had those tyres on the clio thought they were okay at best

Yeah in wet they're only ok, not a patch on the rainsports in the wet but firmer enough for track and pretty good in dry and Wear brilliantly.

Mmm maybe I did something wrong when o tried them at Oulton.

How do the yokos compare to the nsnkang ns2r? I'm getting 15's and want to run some decent tyres for sumner. Don't think I'll get on track this year but don't want to burn through tyres too quickly!

 

[imprezaworks]

From what I've read, I'd pick rsr or ado8.

 

[Admanirv]

How much are the rsr or ns2r?

Thanks

 

[imprezaworks]

Depends on size. About 220 in 15's

 

[Clio_fool]

Rsr?

 

[imprezaworks]

Federal.

 

[Clio_fool]

Ah. Have you tried them?

 

[Admanirv]
