go for toyo proxe r888's mate they are the cheapest and pretty much the same as all other track tyres, i just bought 4 for my trip to the ring and they were absolutely amazing cdnt fault them i was keeping up with my mate in his mr2 turbo with 269bhp at the wheels in my standard xe'd corsa.

increase on average cornering speeds by about 15mph :D

i know a few people who run silly offsets on track cars just to get a bit of extra track, and get more corner speed

it'll be fine. pig on the road, great on the track :D


i kinda had that in my head, just wanted someone else to say it as well.
