Motor sport tyres are very different to street tyres.

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Exactly right, Pete.Originally posted by Peter Jones View Post
Motorsport tyres have a completely different construction and are not designed for a compromise between road noise/comfort AND handling. A taller motorsport tyre will be designed with a stiffer sidewall etc to combat the fact that they are taller.
An interesting article, but road tyres are road tyres. Unless you just want to have a bit of fun, that's all they are.
