Landsail Trackday tyres

[R3k1355]

Has anyone heard anything about Landsail's track tyre, the AK01?

I assume they've seen the success Nankang had with the NS-2R and AR-1, they fancy a piece of the action.

Available as a 195/50 R16, which is rather interesting.

Aye, Davanti have their Protoura Race range too.

Did you order any of these

Did you order any of these

No, for the price and size I'm looking at I'll probably go with Zestino Gredge. The Davanti tyres were coming in similar money to Nankang AR-1, which are excellent and hard to ignore at that price point.

 

[Waite_87]

What is the best price you have seen for these? I like the look of them myself

 

[R3k1355]

Demon Tweaks seem to be the supplier for Zestino, broadly their price seems to be a touch cheaper than Nankang NS-2R, plus there's a choice of compounds, although not as many size options.

what’s that other budget track brand that Auto Alex and friends bang on about? Tire streets or something?

 

[JimF]

Tire Streets is the retailer, think the brand is Accelera.

That’s the badger!

I wonder if they are any good at all. Its still >£400 for most cars for the 100tw option and I would sooner spend £600 than waste £400....

Are Giti GTR tyres still available? TyreTek had some part worns but is anyone selling them new?

Just don't go for the soft option as I did, perfect in winter but as soon as things start drying out or warming op they overheat within a couple of laps.

 

[Mr Squashie]

They're probably fine on a Clio 🧐

[Grandpa Joe]

The Armstrong tyre isn't rated as highly as the Accelera 651

The Vitour P1s seem to be actually quite decent going by a couple mates who have been running them on Ring tools in comparison to the benchmark Direzza and A052s, seem to perform up there which is pretty impressive
