Kumho soft is softer than Toyo SG - no-one has tried the super-soft yet as it's new this year. I used to run Toyo SG when most of the class ran Kumho soft but later switched to Kumho which was a big improvement.

Lots of people are now running 215 fronts. This requires a 7.5" to 8" rim.

Class 4 and below are limited to 215 rears. Class 5 can use 235 (which require an 8" to 9" rim).

Well the SS performed well and nowhere near overheating. Max tyre temp I got was 36deg C (40 deg is optimum???). I ended up not taking my softs for comparison but Nigel Fox was on softs and his tyres were up to 5 deg cooler and I seemed to have better traction off the line. There were a few times where I was expecting to lock up under braking and didn't. Overall impression was that the SS will be good for most if not all events.........but time will tell
