Where to go for 13" tyres?
Wheres a good place to get some 13 inchers?
Choice seems quite limited these days and I'm after 2 in 185/60/13 and 2 in 205/60/13.
Don't want to go to the expense of 888's as I will NEVER get the best use of them... and I don't mind going out, or getting caught
out when it rains....
I liked the A539's on my Striker but can't find the sizes anywhere, and I would like to try the Toyo R1R's but again sizes seem
lacking....
What all the 13" peeps using and where from???

A048's from George polley motorsport, in the exact sizes you sate. The rears are £192 fitted, getting fronts next weekend, but should roll in at
about £160

Bought my Falkens ^^ from Camskill.
Can go out of stock so buy when available.
Local tyre shop charged £12 each to fit.
Not the grippiest tyres in the world but lasted quite well and running them at about 20psi seems optimum.
HTH.
Cheers, Pewe.

Used them on a couple of my race cars.
Sylva phoenix
Westfield seiw
May even try some medium compound on the Mallock Mk11b
Side wall is a lot less stiff than r888 or ao48 giving you a a much smoother breakaway when it comes unstuck.
Camskill is a good place to buy or southshore tyres blackpool.
There hard compound is more like a medium in 888/ao48
Medium is softer than 888/ao48 medium
The soft is ideal for sprints.
Also a lot cheaper than 888/ao48

Camskill all the way - then get a local garage to put them on for you!

Tried black circles?
You couldn't pwn your way out of a wet paper bag, with "PWN ME!!" written on it, from the "pwned take-away" which originally contained one
portion of chicken tikka pwnsala and the obligatory free pwnpadom.

Just bought a set of Yokahama 539s from Sandhurst Tyres, part of blackcircles, £240 fitted and balanced. With all the rain it is nice to have some
grip again.
