Default Tyres from last night

Here are the tyres I was using last night. Very similar to the Sorex but a fraction of the price:

Sorex are only just over £10 so the RRP of those it high if it's a one off offer.

Having said that, £15 rrp = only £5 cheaper than 4 x Sorex.

Once you factor in the cost of rims and inserts the 2 brands aren't that different in price, nor in quality.

They worked well last night once I got used to them. My car was oversteering quite a lot but I have tightened the front diff for next week

Cool! Thank for the link :-) they seem super soft, and I had you right on my tail all night even though you haven't polished your setup yet.

Also, what wheels were you running? Spokes are way nicer than dishes...
