Another tyre thread!

[northy]

second hand sets have dryed up now, the ones that do come up are years old.

I have been buying new - £150 a corner. Not fitted my two new ones yet but i am excited to try fresh rubber!!!!

Before I go get these tyres fitted and possibly tracking setup..

was going over the manual for the Toyo's last night and was reading about temps. Optimum seems to be between 160F to 220F. Do people generally bring tyre temperature gauges to track days? Any historical data on the average temp tyres get to on track days?
I know style of driving and car setup will obviously effect temps but I find tyres interesting! Also as incorrect temps generally cause tyre graining are you sure we can get these up to temp in British summer time weather?

Also on the camber side of things. They suggest -2 negative camber but they say that these tyres already produce negative camber thrust. As a Williams is 0 camber on default setup I'm wandering if it's worthwhile at all getting bolts to do this. They say you need to be able to dial in your camber as you check tyre temps but how do you know what degrees your at without going to get a tyre place to give you a reading all the time?

Its like chalk and cheese the feeling between the 2..



And here she is getting some TLC.
