Service on Saturday and complete the inside. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to these different components, your new tires require a break-in period to ensure that they deliver their normal ride quality and maximum performance. As tires are cured, a release lubricant is applied to prevent them from sticking in their mold. Some of the lubricant stays on the surface of your tires, reducing traction until it is worn away. Five hundred miles of easy acceleration, cornering and braking will allow the mold release lubricant to wear off, allowing the other tire components to begin working together. It is also important to note that your old tires probably had very little tread depth remaining when you felt it was time to replace them. As any autocrosser or racer who has tread rubber shaved off of his tires will tell you, low tread depth tires respond more quickly. Don't be surprised if your new tires are a little slower to respond (even if you use the exact same tire as before). Their new, full depth brings with it a little more tread squirm until they wear down.just a heads up for those interested 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to be warmed up before they grip properly don't they?Yeah that has always been my concern. The Goodyear EF1A2 are ridiculously good in the wet....but not expecting these to be anywhere near them. But when speaking to the boss dude, he rekons they are still good in the wet. Although each persons interpretation of 'good' can differ significantly lolAnd they are not a proper semi slick. They are advertised as road tyres that can be used at the track....(so somewhere in between road and track tyres). 180 treadwear ....so if I can get 10-15,000kms I'll be happy with that (another seller said he had customers get 20,000kms+ but no doubt those cars were not heavy cars like ours). do a few burn outs to scrub them in.also take some pics of the treadwear.LOL....nah, I'm gunna try and let it do its thing naturally. I'm sure they will get better after a few hundred kms. Treadwear pattern is this: (same rims even except mine are a gunmetal grey type of colour) Information on breaking in tyresjust a heads up for those interestedThanks for the tip! I might follow these directions and try not to go too hardcore in the beginning lol Edited 23/03/15 04:18 AM by PTR_NITRO_FG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
