That's Kelv you want to ask about them. He was lapping very well by all accounts, so I'm sure they're not bad. Just not as good as say an R888 or whatever more focussed tyre.

8:55 on his first time driving there, so he seemed to get on well.

Personally im not a fan of them for track use though, I lose a few seconds a lap from my clio at combe if I go from my parada road tyres to my 888s

Drunken Master, i wouldnt say they were to bad, in all honesty i thought they were supposed to be a relatively sticky road tyre, so it suited to go for those and still use them all year as the car is a daily driver.

but after doing a few laps with them, id rather have gone directly for the 888's, the parada's were ok, but the last few corners of each lap gave me the impression that they were going off a little, but that was conquered a little by dropping to 22psi fronts and 25psi rear tyre presures when cold.

they will do for the rest of this year, 888's for track next time
