What Slicks

Postby olboy » Sun Mar 08, 2020 11:23 am

Hi
I'm up for new tyres on my track day only car
Had semi's and thinking about stepping up to full slicks
I'm already in the class for them so why not
What should I buy, 15x7s

Thanks in advance

15x8 however depends on the tyre width, no different to normal tyre decisions.

I would recommend the hankook F200, in either medium or soft compound depending on car weight/ laps etc. I've used many sets of these and have been happy.

They range from a 190/570/15 to 215/580/15.
