Do you think there are 2 track days left on these tires? Have an event in a couple weeks, and am wondering if this will make it through two days (probably 10 20 minute sessions total).
They are also now about 1.5 years old and have a bluish tint to them... ? -Steve |

Followup from my reply above.
As you said the pics may not depict the real condition of the tires so make sure you don't have any cord showing. Also if you have a pre-tech, talk this over with the tech crew and let them check the tires. If you get the go ahead for the event, re-check for cord spots after each run session. Be sure to put the 'best' tire on the corner that 'works' the hardest, 'worst' tire that 'works' the least, etc. for the track you are going too. Following on Messix's comment, make sure the psi isn't too high and check hot after coming in. |
