Possibly aimed more for Donsy

I got a set of pirelli wets but bought it as a package deal with wheels second hand as spares

He said tyres are a couple years old but fine and he used last year

I can tell dry tyres easy but wets there are no tears or wear and no heat cycle signs

Rubber feels soft but it's playing on my mind. Any help?

Just a bit of thread revival for anyone ever searching wet tyres or similar

If I can give any advise run new or be very much aware of its background. After thinking about it I went out and reluctantly spent the money on a new set...it was the best think I could have done

This was my first ever track day in the wet (Sorry its not an MV on track) and gives you an idea of the grip they give! There were people riding Sport Touring road tyres on the day and couldn't get even half the pace. The screen doesnt make it look wet but I can assure you it was soaked with standing puddles

Knee down once confident enough! A friend ran some old ones dated 2009 which looked ok and crashed the week before at Brands Hatch a local track to me

Certainly made my mind up, anyways here it is;
