As you can see from the pic as well, it's a cracking tyre in the dry, but no tread near the edges for the wet.

Just want to point that out. I'm not against them, they're just a nightmare in the wet.

It may not rain of course, but then this is Britain!


Got to say i'd wouldnt like to risk them tyres in the wet.....
there is no point having a race on tyres that are no good in the wets...........you need to be able to trust what ever tyre you are using wet or dry...
