  • Are these still ok to run?

    I thought they still had some life in them, I guess not.

      The sick part about those tires is AB got 2nd overall with them. Looks like there may be a new CSP Marshall in town next event.

        When you are done with them, pass them on to Evan. I hear he's looking to upgrade the tires on his stunning new ride......

          Looks like a manufacturer's defect. Send them back for a replacement set

            Those have more rubber on them than the 710's I bought from Clay

              At least you get to use all the rubber on the tires. I had cord showing on the outside edge of mine yesterday while the inside edges had plenty of life left. Camber-challenged cars are a tire maker's best friend

                Are replacement R compound tires included in the bailout?

                  Thanks for pointing that out Peter, the tires did wear pretty well.

                        Miss one event and all of the sudden you're done. Such is the life of a CSPer.

                          I think if you peel that top layer off it reveals the really grippy part of the tire. I'd use them at the next event if I were you.

                            Are those what you call blisters?

                            Next time you see Sparky ask how many layers of cord there are.

                              The tires arent really all that good until you can see the shiny silver layer under the black.
