Dunlop Track Day Tyres
Posted: Mon Jun 27, 2005 8:58 am
Many people will tell you that the best track day mod for your car is a set of track rubber.... They are absolutely correct!!
The joy of the RS4 is that with a spare set of rims, you can throw your track tyres and rims in the back and swap them at the track, or as most are road legal, you could just drive there with them on.
I was a track rubber virgin until I did Hockenheim with a set of second hand Pirelli Corsa's, wow what an experience. The Pirelli's are 265, which has eaten a bit of the inner arch away.
Dunlop have been present at a few track days recently offering free coffee and some good advice from their techs.
Long story, not so short...... I'm going to give the Dunlop D01J a try for my next set (http://www.dunloptyres.co.uk/ourTyres/m ... rt/saloon/). 235/40/ZR18 net price £155 per corner, but if we have some interested parties we can have a healthy discount. Also, if you would rather I've arranged to have a set pre-discounted as a test set so that I can provide feedback to you guys.
