Schumacher Yellows vs other brand tyres

[deano261]

is there any difference between the Schumacher Yellows than any other brand because on my Ansmann Mad Rat i ran through the stock tyres in no time after upgrading to a 6.5t motor. So i was wondering if they would last longer.

well Yellows are the 2nd softest in the range...
Get Blue if you want them to last longer

remember the tyre that grips twice as hard wears out twice as fast (not literally)

I would have put Yellows as third softest, with Silver first, then Green, then Yellow....?

green are harder than yellow

silver - yellow - green - blue
soft -----------------------hard

Yellow is "softer" than greens mate.

What is "no time", dependant on surface you would expect to get a usable life of 2-3 meetings out of yellow minispikes BUT a new tire will always have more forward drive hence why youoften see the fast boys putting a couple of sets on a day at meetings that really matter.

nope

Are greens a different type of rubber then or something, as they feel softer in the hand than yellows...

Ballistic Greens feel softer then Schumi yellows to me.

Shumi greens are harder than their yellows. You can easily feel the difference.
