Forrest 35 Report post Posted April 27, 2009 http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....showtopic=22081 Probably a little wide Ollie, but cheaper than 300ea when you factor in shipping. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are better off to go with 15" wheels and use the same Toyos they use for the race series. But I guess your brakes are too big to go back to 15"???

Andre3000 55 Report post Posted April 27, 2009 Yup got mine for 250 ea from auto tyre limited. I can also get for much cheaper from a mate as he gives them to me for cost price but only for me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30-323ti 66 Report post Posted April 27, 2009 Do you need Semi-Slicks?? Or Full slicks?? In that size I'd look for some tyres from the Mini Challenge guys. They have wets & drys but I don't think they are for "road use" as required by some track events. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skidz 197 Report post Posted April 27, 2009 You need semi slicks, Ollie, not full slicks, can run intermarque for club points on full slicks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skidz 197 Report post Posted April 27, 2009 I meant to say, you cannot run for points on full slicks... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
