tyre wear tells a story

Post by racyzx6rr »

couple of pics of my tyres after racing
pirelli super corsers
front - 106 laps 30psi
rear - 46 laps 27.5psi
the wear and look of the tyres tell me that my suspension set up is pretty spot on at the moment including the handling side of things as well, too bad the centre doesnt get much use at all

good weekend racing, pole and 4 wins and a PB to top it off

cheers

Top results there mate. Worthy of a :drinkers: if you ask me.
You're not wrong about the set-up being pretty good either. The way the edges have worn looks very good considering the number of laps you've done on them. As for the near new centres, I thought that with all those wins that the celebratory wheelies & burnouts would take care of some of that (on the rear anyway) :mrgreen:

Nice even wear to the edges mate. Not tearing up much either so You had a bit in hand I'd say. Glad to see Green out in front where it should be.

except on the sand up at Mt Nebo, great tyres for the track no where near enough tread for the road especially if you get caught in the wet.
