Steve Brown Posted March 22, 2001 Share Posted March 22, 2001 My spare (track day) tyres, which have been stored in the garage since last use in September, have a blue iridescent appearance as the light catches them. Curriosity has got the better of me. I'm sure it must mean something, but have got no idea what. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevefoster Posted March 22, 2001 Share Posted March 22, 2001 My slicks did that when stored in a not dark enough env. Tyres will keep very well if cool and dark. I don't know what happens chemically to make the blue tinge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Bees Posted March 22, 2001 Share Posted March 22, 2001 My A032R's have done this despite being stored pretty much in the dark. I thought it was just where they'd got a bit toasted on the track... Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slipper man Posted March 22, 2001 Share Posted March 22, 2001 My slicks do that too. They are fine when you get some heat in them again though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
