If you dont know, you dont know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

easy to think they would act like slicks because they look like them... but it doesn't quite work like that lol

[peterzs]

Thats OK I'm getting 2 new Hankook Evo 12 soon and was going to send the old Evo 12's up.

Saves me the cost and bother, thanks Ross.

I can get my hands on a full set of toyo R888's for £180 delivered. part worn with 1mm-3mm tread but ideal for track I'd say

similar to normal tyures, except the profile is more a radius type measurement, but just to give you an idea;

200/610/17 is a clio cup michelin size, similar to a 205/45/17
200/620/17 is the older clio cup dunlop tyre, similar to a 205/50/17

210/620/17 is a clio cup dunlop wet (old type), similar to a 215/45/17

get the idea?

235/610/17 is the s2000 btcc tyre (dunlop) similar to a 235/40/17.

the 200/610 will stand the same as a 235/610 in terms of rolling radius.

the 620 will be a bigger rolling radius and a 245/650/18 will barely fit!


then theres rims.

clio use 8" or 8j rims, the 200's and 210's sit well on them, they will fit on a 7j, but better on a 7.5j and best on an 8j.

s2000 btcc use a 9j (9" wide - thats internal measurement, not measured edge to edge in which case it would measure 10") rim for the 235, they do not fit well at all on an 8" wide rim, needs at least a 8.5J rim which is not popular in motorsport - certainly not in the T.D. range.

so, most ZS's will use a clio cup slick on either 7j straights or 7.5j 11 spokes and should work fine without rubbing.

the clios are going back to dunlop tyres for next season btw.
