I know this is my first post (which looks bad when I'm selling something!) but I am an active member of LocostBuilders forum for the last year, ClioSport.net for a year before that, MIGWEB for the last 15 years(!) etc so you if you need me to be 'vouched for' please don't hesitate to ask for references.
A friend mentioned this forum at a trackday event a few weeks ago and said it could be worth advertising due to the nature of the cars on the site so, here I am!
I'm a motorsport and commercial photographer by trade so over recent years have built up relationships with various race and support teams throughout the UK. Due to this relationship I am able to supply Part-Worn Michelin Exalto PE2 and slick tyres.
Part-Worn Michelin PE2 Tyres
The tyres are "control tyres", used in a UK race Championship. As such, they have to be changed after every race. The races are between 15-20 laps long and the cars weigh c. 650-700kg so the wear and damage to the tyres is very minimal.
Tyres are supplied with tread ranging from between 5mm to 8mm (usually more than less) and all sets will be as matched as possible.
Some photos are below.
As you can see the majority of the markings on the tyres are minor scrubbing. The tyres do have fair amounts of 'pickup' from the track but this will obviously come off within the first 5-10miles of driving.
Price and Delivery
15" 195/50 R15 - PE2s - £110 collected / £125 delivered
(set of four)
Part-Worn Slick Tyres
These are used in various UK race Championships for either one race, testing or practice etc. The photos below indicate what I would consider to be the 'average' condition of the slicks that I can obtain.
As with all race tyres there is a fair amount of pickup on the tyres due to the nature of their use, this will obviously vary depend on the conditions at the time of the race, but, regardless, will all come off within the first few miles of use anyway.
Some photos:
The ones in the image below are Dunlop 17" slicks but the slicks I have in stock could be Michelin, Dunlop or Avon.
So, what sizes can I supply:
13" Slicks
160, 200, 230, 240 wide. Maybe some 185’s coming in future. Maybe wets available
15" Slicks
15” slicks are Michelin 19/57 x 15 or Dunlop 185/58 x 15 both equivalent of a 195/50/15
17" Slicks
205/62 x 17. Maybe wets available
235 or 240/61 x 17
18" Slicks
240 or 250 all the way up to 310 wide!
Compounds
The compounds vary, but all are from 'circuit racing' so not as soft as those used for hillclimbs, sprints or drag-racing. If you want these for track days then they will be spot on. If you are after some specifically for hillclimbs or sprints then let me know first and I will see what I can pull out
Price and Delivery
Slicks vary in price dependent on size and width. Please ask for a price on anything not quoted below -
