FS: 15" Michelin Slicks x5

As the race series I'm entering this season has control tyres, these are now surplus to requirements - as I cant run them

They're proper racing slicks, with no cut tread in them so not road legal (obviously)... but are absolutely FANTASTIC on track. After the first lap and you've warmed them up they are amazingly sticky, corner speeds are a lot higher and they allow you to brake a lot later as you've got so much grip.

When you come in from a session, you can physically feel how sticky they are, and as you can see from the pictures, they pick up anything that's not nailed down, leaves, rubber, anything Any marks on the tyres pictured (like the line of rubber on the tyre) comes straight off on the first lap and clean up perfectly, but like any race tyre, you have to respect they're not the greatest when they're cold - or wet!

The sizes stamped on them are 19/57/15 which equate to 195x50x15 in road size so will fit on a 6.5"-7.5" rim. There's loads of meat on them as well, I measured the wear gauge and it was around 1.5mm, I think it's around 1.8 from new?

Looking for £200.00 for a full set of 5, this will mean you've got a spare in case you get a puncture (which I did at Coombe driving through the pits at the end of the day )

Here's some pics of them:











Collection would be preferred from Gloucester or Bristol, but I may be able to arrange a courier at buyers cost.
