Pirelli P-Zero Corsa's?

Does anyone know of a good dealer for the Pirelli Corsa (track type) tyres? Looking to stick some track rubber on my OEM 17's this year. Had a hunt on the net and the Pirelli's seem a little elusive in a sensible size....

Cheers

Martin

ill ring around some supplyers tomorrow and see what i can do for you, what sizes are you running ?

Do you deal in Toyo R888's?

i can get them but my wholsaler dose not deal direct with toyo so unless there on offer i cant get near the net prices

If this is in preparation for Llandow then I'm not happy

Full boost for me this year, we'll see who's quickest

Standard size is probably best. 235/45/17 and 255/40/17.

Thanks for your time

Allready have them mate, just wanna try some smaller ones on the back to see how it effects traction/handling.

Nice choice in tyres sir. I have them and they last and last and grip and grip and look great.

i ve got Pirelli P-Zero's on my 17" on my supe very good tyre

i can only get the corsas in 18s and 19s at the moment sorry mate , finding 17s hard to come by

Thanks for trying. That's pretty much what I've been finding on the size front.

Have you tried Ibrar on here?

Biggest supplier of Corsas in the UK. I get mine there, and they usually have a good range of stock sizes.

Great tyre review site!, Martin ive just picked up a set of fronts in these corsa`s and will be trying them at rockingham in a month, i can let you know what they`re like if you want before you shell out loads on a set.

In the reviews the Saab 9000 user chose a totally unsuitable tyre for his car, they need a LOT of negative camber to work, something the Saab won't have, nor add dynamically through having a lot of caster angle. It could only have the requisite camber with engineering mods. If you set the car up to use these tyres correctly they are very very good, only Pilot Sport Cups are considered better on many cars.

Ah they may work ok on mine then, i`m running quite alot of negative camber.

Thanks for the contact Chris - will give them a call tomorrow.

Will be very interested to see how you get on with them Si. Trying to sort a cost effective tyre solution out.

I was/am tempted by Rockingham but the price seemed to rocket while I was deliberating and not keen to shell out proper money for a potentially wet track day.

How much negative are you running btw? Mine chews through front tyres and tramlines pretty badly with about a degree (assuming the previous settings still stand).

Lots of run off, I think, what better way to find out how your car is inthe wet (if indeed it is wet). It seems to go up £2.50 each time someone books, but the £30 it has increased by isn;t much when you factor in the cost of getting there & back, fuel whilst on track plus reduced life of pads, tyres... get it booked!

Also, we've got garages booked so there is no need for us to get cold & wet.

I'm still crossing my fingers thta it'll be dry, of course.

To get Corsas, Pilot Sport Cups or 888's working properly on a MKIV you need about 3 or so degrees front negative, and about 1 rear negative, unless running very very stiff spring rates.That's more than the stock adjusters will allow, so really you need to just wind as much on as you can, giving equality side to side

I know exactly what my car is like in the wet (see relevant Donington youtube clip!) hence why I fancy a dry one!! It is comedy drifting around Milton Keynes in the wet, but I find it a little frustrating on a track.

I may still come along, but I'll decide nearer the time. The early bird discount seems to have all but dried up now. Have these tracks not heard there's a recession on?!?!

Ah yes that was you at Donington!!

Give them a ring and say you'll do it if you can pay the same as those of us who booked earlier. There are 7 of us at present so you might be lucky.

Saw the donington clip mate, looked like fun:)

I`m on around 1.4 degree neg camber iirc, does tend to wear the insides pretty quick.
