thats with the wheels btw and the slicks are new(2 did 2 runs of santa pod today though, hence not Ł400, thats an expensive 2 runs!), there a hard compound at first and only get warm after a bit so should last better than normal.

3x14.2's, I should of done some big bad bwoy burn outs!,If you've got room under the arches get some Dunlop X04's in 15" second hand, put a wanted add on rallyusedparts.co.uk, they're a 55 profile though,loads of rally boys will have em, probably free if you pick em up.

X04 means hard, they go up to X14 which is super soft for use as a wet, 4's and 6's are best for track/Ł. You can get maxisports which are better than a road tyre, just, and last forever!X14's on the strip wouldn't last, but would stick mega, Demon Tweeks also sell a tyre softening brush on liquid, but I've never used it so can't say if it works or not?
