Slicks are fitted :o)

Finally got my Clio Cup slicks fitted to my track day wheels on Friday.

Thanks to Yoz for sorting out the tyres.

Looking forward to giving them a run at Brands next week.

Go easy on them for at least 5-10laps!!! Or bye bye will inevitably happen!

Sounds like a good plan to me! Brands can be....quite unforgiving, esp when u seize coming into Paddock at over the tonne.

I can see how that could be a bit of a tricky situation!

[® Andy]

Way cool

 

[Fred@BTM]

REMOVE the rim weights!!!

ive seen these dig into the tyres when used on track

NO NEED to have track wheels and tyres weighted!!!!!!

 

[Remedi]

I would paint the wheels black but thats more weight i suppose

Love the look.

Exactly what I said.

VERY easy to get plenty of heat into them...

Tyres were from myself Stu.

Can get them for the V6 if you REALLY want them...
