Thinking id quite like to get mine on Cups for the road this year as well but out the 3 track days i did last year i done them all with the PS2's on due to rain :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry:

The cups i have on my track wheels are very near slicks so show them a wet track and you are in the nearest wall.

Ahh right, not long though is it! :thumbs:

I can't wait to get mine on and scrub some of that rubber off you've got stuck to them! Makes them looked totally fucked but I'm sure they'll be fine! :bigcry: :bigcry:

You can get a hot knife or scraper for the bigger bits. It's just what happens if you don't have a long run home on them after a trackday

I wore some in October that were still lumpy after a drive to Anglesey and half a trackday. I think it is worse when you get them wa on cold days and once you slow down the rubber hardens quicker than usual

It's fine mate, the tread will be there somewhere! :hahaha: :thumbs:

Never got round to putting my winter wheels on, so Cups all year for me. Having said that it's not a daily driver so guess I'm cheating!

Went for a great drive yesterday in it, not pushing hard as temp was apparently about 3-4 degs, and the other half is 8 months pregnant, she reckoned the baby enjoyed the run though!

Still feels so quick to me, I don't use it that much so familiarity has definitely not bred any contempt!

You would get top money for them at a Baghdad market !:thumbs:

[$w!ft]

I've got a trackday at combe tomorrow which might be damp/wet....

I'm undecided about using my low tread goodyears or some used cups... Any pointers from someone with experience?

Cheers

[shimmy]

typically i would say

DAMP - Cups
WET - other
