Aparoon:
Im doing a track day at Oulton on 16th, Ive got some Yoko A048 tyres to go on but im unsure whether to bother fitting them with the weather ... Anyone any experience of them? Dont want to ruin the day if its not warm /dry enough...

Thanks,Chris

So long as it isn't pissing down, they'll be great. Lower temps = more warm up laps.

Aparoon:
That's good to hear, I wasn't sure whether they'd be poor in this chilly weather. I was going to see how it is Monday then stick them on if its ok :-)

I used these tyres on a track day last week. You could tell they didnt have the usual amount of grip and the tyre pressures never raised as high as usual because of the temps but they were still ok. They will be ok on a wet track day as long as they are fairly new with some decent tread depth if not, good luck.  :driver:

I have them for my car and they are excellent when up to temp! I will be there trying to get my full slicks up to temp though, so i wouldnt be concerned about it. Besides by the wkend and next week they reckon weather will be hitting 20. We will see! :happy2:
