best for what, road, track, wet, dry?

What for ? I'd say Silverstone road legal slicks for fast road use on dry road unless there cut for wet roads.

Most people swaer by F1's though

I'd personaly always go for Continential there the stock tyres Renault spent a few quid sorting the car for them.

contisport contacts they are called... utter shite in my honest opinion. The contact2s are marginally better. dont believe you can get the 1s anymore..

Ive PE2s. Swear by them But the ph 1quicks came on michelins.

Conti 2's melt faster on track.

You can get 1's there just difficult somtimes to source.

Well for there grip on circuit in the wet and dry I've no complains IMO there very similar in some ways to the full Silverstone slicks.

There to hard both in compound they don't wear well grip isn't superb and you cannot tell where they are on the limt in the wet or dry as well as others.

For me there worth a few seconds on track vs the contis.
