Default WTB: 1 205/50/15 Yok A032R

With some tread on it - down to the wear bars would be great even.

I have a set that I'm using now, but I have one tire thats worn alot more than the others and I'm not sure if its going to last 2 more weekends. Why is it worn? Summit point + heat + pressures too high + I'm an Idiot = worn LF tire.

If I cant turn one up, I'll just flip it on the rim and hope it lasts

hi rj!

yup, ya got to be careful and check the pressures on those puppies, especially in the kind of weather we had last week!

i got one spare left. its in really nice shape (%70 tread, i'd estimate). i think i'm gonna be racing Probenstien at VIR, hopefully; want me to bring it?

i'll make you a dealio on it, so that it can go join its cousins on your car

todd

ps how did they compare to your Falkens (feel, laptimes, etc.)?

Slightly less bite on turn in, but better grip and more consistent throughout the session. I could really push them the whole session without grip falling off like the falkens tend to do in Summit point summertime heat. No data on laptimes since I just put the camera in this weekend but I'd say 1-2 seconds/lap faster.

Next up, Victoracers in the garage, and picking up a set of Hankooks after VIR. I love used tires
