Tyres tyres tyres
I know you're all tired of tyres but :
- have done 12,500 and the rears are shot.
- need excellent wet weather capability - so I assume F1's are the only choice ?
- I'm going to go to Bracknell as I think they have good prices.
- my fronts are still okay - should I just get rears and wait til the fronts are shot ?
Am I doing anything wrong ? Should I mix ? Do I keep the same sizes ? Anything else ?
I know this has been discussed to death but I'm just plain lazy.

I need a complete set, just tipped over the 10,000mile mark - roads around here are terrible 
Are F1's cheaper than OEM S02's? I think this is the only way I would switch.
Full set of S02's is

Tyringe - find a track day and I'll joing you to finish them off !!!!!!
A track day followed by a trip to Bracknell would not be a cheap day but certainly "the right thing to do".
I'll see if I can find anything.

If you want plenty of track days you need to be joining the Honda-R club. That's the main purpose of the club and they are well organised!!!
It's not just set up for Type R cars it's for anything with a Honda badge on it.
Myself and Brian Marshall are the only S2K owners .

Hi Matt,
I do mean to get around to joining Honda-R. Im not sure how useful it will be for trackdays tho - most seem to be in the north and Im the wrong side of the M25.
This looks promising : http://www.pistonheads.com/trackdays/displ...ent.asp?id=1846

Castle Combe sounds ace - but ... I'm tied up with some work thing in Ealing. What about this w/e - or are there any evening events ? Really need to scrub those tyres !

I think I saw a couple of events on Saturday but I didnt take too much notice as Im gonna be hungover on Saturday! Try EasyTrack or BookATrack.
Castle Combe thing looks great - right location & date, not too expensive, and it looks like they have availability.
