I need tyres too - although I'm not coming, what are the chances of a group buy on the Hankooks?

I'd be interested in that too, depending on price.

Camskill have them at £90/corner, can anyone find them cheaper than that? Would be good if we can find somewhere convenient to fit them as a group too....
http://www.camskill.co.uk/m61b0s134p...R18_92Y_XL_TL_

If it doesn't work out, i'll go with falkens again (FK452's @ £74/corner, bargiiiin)

I'll take 2 lots of the oil off you - that's less than Opie at that price.

I have 4 new Dunlop S.S.R. tyres 245 35 18 if anyone needs them. they will fit an 8" rim but 8 1/2 or 9" would be better. They are road legal but come with only 5mm of tread as they were designed primarily for track use. I have done many sub 8min laps with this tyre but they are not too bad for wear on the road. Nige has experience their performance on the Ring if anyone needs a reference.
