Title: front tires
Post by: TristanGS on March 22, 2009, 12:33:14 PM
ok, What is the front tire you guys suggest for best grip? Track day soon, and I am having issues with the front, so I want a grippier tire. Although, obviously I cant go too grippy before I run into issues with the chassis, etc.

Grippiest for a trackday is simple.

Either the Michelin Power Race, or the Pirelli DIABLO SUPERCORSA

Both are available in a 110/70 front and a 150/60 rear.


You can also use the Bridgestone BT-090 in a 110 & 140 size, but I have found that they lose grip 5-6 laps into a race as they start to over heat, may be fine for a trackday.

i've heard the chasis cant handle radial tires
