Road tyres for track...

[Tfsi_Mike]

Funding 888s / semi slicks may be too pricey so Im wondering what the best road going tyres are for track days?

F1 Assy v2?

Ps3?

PSS?

R1R may be a option if they last longer than 888s?

Any opinions or suggestions?

yoko ad08.... perfect for both road/track use and should last OK if used on the roads a lot  

They will last forever on a tiled garage floor.... [/cheapshot]

Yep i agree with Rich.

Wouldn't it be bext to have 2 sets of wheels/tyres rather than compromise using a road tyre on track and trying to use a track tyre on the road?

I do have 2 sets of wheels 

Just thinking performance road tyres are a bit cheaper and can resort to using them if need be.

The turinis are getting Hankook v12s

Just keep your eyes peeled for a ready supply of used semis, I've never bought a new set. Best find was to snag a set of unused DZ03Gs for £350, did 3 track days on them and sold them for £350.

AD08s are getting great reviews, and seem to last forever too.

As you have 2 sets of wheels it doesnt make sense to get a compromised tyre (as has been said above).... just get some proper track tyres for your track set.

Or stop gaying about... get a cage in and some slicks!

Just take both sets of wheels home and leave it propped on axle stands at AKS.

PSS gets my vote

Its not getting tiring yet... 

[Tfsi_Mike]

Isn't it?

Not sure why you have multiple sets of wheels anyway. After all it just sits in a garage. ;)

Hi mate, just purchased a set of these for the summer ... how come you didnt rate them? spoke to a few guys that run them on focus ST and RS only last week and they said the only issues they had was hitting standing water.
