Tyres at ribble
 
Hi guys

I am going through sets of minipins at a serious rate. Don't know if its just the b44, but it seems unless the tyres are new or nearly new the performance drops right off.

Has anyone tried anything else with any sucess? For example some of the proline stuff look like they might work.

Would be good to get a bit more mileage out of them, otherwise i might buy some shares in shumacher!

Cheers for that:thumbdown: knew somebody must have tried.

Could also be the set up on worn tyres that's not working for you. My quickest times have been on 'worn tyres' (2-4 meetings old) that means I only use 3 sets a season :) plus the wheels and inserts can be reused with acetone.

worn tyres work on rangos mate really well but not on 44.1s if I ran the ones I was running on my 410 on the 44 it would just spin for fun

mine are nearly shot on my xxx4 but is got good times in them and im on my 4 round with them,
setup is the key, try changing setup on worn tyres cos they do work

What set up changes would people recommend for catering with worn tyres?
