CPGCharlie Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Hi all, I've just joined and getting used the how the whole things works, I'm looking for a pair of tyres for my 2005 Duratec R (not sure what details make a difference to the tyres if any?)Currently running on Yokohama Advan 195 60 R14 86H any suggestions whether these are the best tyres for the 7 or if there is a better version or suitable substitute would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks,Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted October 26, 2018 Member Share Posted October 26, 2018 Welcome.Road only or road and track?How important is performance in the wet?Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPGCharlie Posted October 26, 2018 Author Share Posted October 26, 2018 Hi Jonathan thanks for getting back. Unfortunately i don't live in the UK, where my 7 does, so i only get about 4 times a year to drive it and will do so every day when I'm back and in any weather. Having said that i don't see wet as that important as i take it very easy in the wet anyway. Road to Track is 85% 15% My second question is a respray but i guess better to start another chat for this? Many thanks,Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted October 26, 2018 Member Share Posted October 26, 2018 I don't know much about what's suitable for higher powered Sevens, but I'd start with this discussion of what Members are using to replace A021Rs.My second question is a respray but i guess better to start another chat for this? There's lots of experience out there. I'd add a question to this discussion.Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
