For the Z?

[brillomaster]

does it have to be slicks? Can get brand new Kumho KU36s in that size for about £70 each, or Federal 595 RS-Rs for about £80.

No its for this : It didn't sell so we are going to do a track day with it on the 15th Oct at Brands,

Will,

 

Got over 50 x 18" part worn slicks in stock but no 17" sorry.

 

I do have a contact so if you draw a blank then just let me know and I will make the call.

Thanks Alex. Appreciate that.

 

Ask your chap how much for a second hand set.

 

Can arrange a courier to pick them up so don't bother adding transport.

 

Cheers mate.

aren't slick tyres sized differently than road tyres? The profile number always seems WAAAAY higher

Try this calculator..

Will,

 

Sorry mate, he also only has 18"

 

Remember that 45 is a road tyre profile so you should be looking for something like 225/625x17

 

Try eBay.

All right for drifting I would think..!

Not really, you want grip from drifting, those things will pop before the first clipping point lol

I bow to your superior knowledge, as I know nothing about drifting requirements

except we went to the UK Europeans Championships at the Olympic Stadium car park and really enjoyed it.
