I know you can blue steel by overheating it, I have seen the state of my old clutch plates.

But can you blue tyres????


Blue Tyre

This is one of my R888's that has just come off the Indy. It's 3 years old, done 5,500 miles, 6 trackdays and they are now down to the wear bars (well the back ones are just past it, the fronts have a little tread left).

All 4 have a distinct blue section around the outer edge.

Do I need to adjust my suspension???? The wear across the tyres looks totally even, no bald shoulders, or centre section.

yep, as said,
it shows that your tyres have been working well with your driving style & car set up,
tho depending on tyre make, a tyre has so many heat cycles then they start to "go off".

Methinks you already know the answer to this question and are just showing-off!

tyre has rubbed in rear wheel arch. = suspension too soft

You're not auditioning for a drive in the next BMW Z4 advert are you?

Looks like mould growth to me Mike. You're not cornering hard enough................

"I blue myself"

If it were just the rears...

it would be sooo tempting to talk about Indy positive camber......

I'll get me coat.
