Mixing Tyres on track?

[withoutabix]

what peoples thoughts on say

running R888's on the front and summat like Evo v12's on the rear?

bad idea?

Be reet.

Some people don't like the idea but i've never had any problems, though this is only on the road and not track.

Be fine, just make the rear pressures lower to accomodate the lower grip on the rear due to the evo's not being as good

i've seen people do well, and others not so from this (i remember one shared drive at a sprint - one guy was very good and quick; t'other kept spinning)

depends

should be fun finding out anyway

sound

might be tempted to get two alloys and r888's stick them on with my evo's on the rear and just see how it goes!

if not then i can just sort out another two!

sideways everywhere, awesome

888's are like driving with glue on your tyres...

I can see this only ending up one way.

This.

Unless you have balls like two edams, I'd run the most grip on the rear.

^you RAGING queer

 

[Hutchie]

its just bloody logic. fronts are gonna get hotter and thus end up softer, so a harder compound is needed.
