Re: UK Rubber Source

Hi Ant,

Malcolm steered me in the right direction with regards to this. I eventually went for the Avons, 215/60VR15's on a 9" rim Front and 295/55VR15's on a 12" Rear.
Malcolms also taken me out on track in his forty wearing the Avons and they grip like hell. They are quite a soft compound so won't last like a regular tyre but the sizes do work for a forty.

I've got a couple of pics of my delivery which shows off the tyre sizes quite well. The body is sitting high but you get the idea. My car has moved on a bit since these pics were taken but I've not got any better pics of the tyres.
