hi
Trying to source some new tyres for the hillclimbing mini.
I have been running on 10x6.5 inch split rims fitted with Dunlop slicks which are used in the mini miglia series. But they are rather expensive when bought new especially when you barely get them warmed up!
The tires I have were second hand when I got them and have gone fairly hard over the past year or two. (Though the Dunlop compound is supposedly a bit too hard for hillclimbing to start with anyway).
I am keen to try a cheaper tyre, like the Yoko A032 which come in 165 width as I have spare a set of revolution wheels that are slightly narrower (5.5 or 6 inch I think) but I would really like to hear a few people’s opinions on the Yoko’s and if there are any other options to consider?
Also what are the chances the 165 tyre would stretch to a 6.5 inch rim?
