Tyre stockists
Where does everyone buy their tyres from?
I'm after 190/580R15 slick for hillclimb/sprint use. Avon are too expensive; Yokohama have none in the country; Pirelli stockist says that they can't get any. So just where do all these race tyres come from? Thin air? |

I'm afraid Thin Air (aka RG Racewear) only do racesuits etc not tyres.

Thanks Simon
I've phoned EARS and I've now ordered a set of moulded slicks (Michelins) for delivery tomorrow. They're as close as I can get in the time remaining. |

If you have any mates at Bedford Autodrome or any race schools they might be able to get you tyres cheap. They buy by the hundreds so they get a real good rate
