  • ultimate road legal tyre for RS 13" wheels

    is there a general consensus on what is the best tyre available at the moment and also in what size, tyre wear is not really an issue, just looking for the best performing tyre in all round conditions for road use

        Yokohama A048's in soft compound are brilliant . We can do sub 5 sec 0-60's on them in an old escort . They cost approx £180 for 2 with fitting

        Tick tock goes the clock and the clock don't lie .
        12.4sec to 109mph With NO turbo , NO gay trailer , NO slicks , NO gas , NO race fuel and NO bits missing . Beat that !!!!

              Avon CR500 rubber is good as well , they are fitted to the new Caterham superlight R500 and come in various 13 inch sizes . A bit pricey these though at £300 for 2

                          these would look nice - Bish had a set a few years ago when he went through his "Halfords" phase
