Federal RS-R's are still popular. Andy916 is happy with his, even in the wet.

Silverstone Competition Tyres FTZ RR (better than 888's and cheaper) are going up in price on 1st Nov, so i have bought some stock at the old prices.

Forgot to add, i have accounts with a couple of tyre wholesalers, one of which can get Yokohama track tyres. They supplied me a set of A539's for the Metro for my road/wet track wheels.

Any BP members i see with new tyres not supplied by me may find they have suddenly gone flat lol.

Ok mate, no point in wheels being bigger/heavier than necessary as long as they will fit over brakes and not change your gearing too much. Lots of options and better value in 17's

Speak soon then.

Yup, very good. Had a great A/B-road trip up to and back from Cadwell, in both wet and dry, and I like those tyres a lot. Standing water upsets them slightly but apart from that I was barely able to unstick them in the wet/damp in the 360bhp RA (with its diff set to 66% of power going to the rear). Very good on track, better than the RE070s I normally run (I haven't tried 888s for comparison). First session of morning when very slimy I had a big slide coming off the top of the mountain and it came back to me easily enough (lots of fishtailing half the way down that straight tho!)
