I dont have many old sets of tyres so would like to get the right ones as I am planning on making the trip most weeks.

Unfortunately Gareth until we know how much carpet and how much tarmac there is going to be there is no way anyone can tell which tyre will be best. As things are added I imagine we will see a favourite appear but until then we'll all be guessing I think. Last night the best tyres to use (excluding my cheating foams) were probably green minispikes or green ballistic buggy's, in my opinion (i've tried them), the worst of all were yellow minipins as they are actually quite stiff. If you've ever cut one in half you'll notice how thick the wall is in comparison to other tyres, so although they work well on carpet they are definitely not so good on tarmac.
