2020-04-22 - Hi! Which cheap semi slick could be better for an Alfa 156 2,5V6 (Front, 1300 kg, 200 PS, Eibach PRO-Kit coilovers and springs, Brembo 330mm Brakes, 8x17j wheels) for trackday in dry conditions on the Hungaroring? I thought on the Westlake RS, Nankang NS-2R, Achilles 123S, Extreme VR2, Federal 595 in 225/45 R17. Which treadwear is optimal for this use? Thank you! Best regards, Gyulai Mark
Unfortunately we've not tested any of these tyres, and have only seen the Nankang appear in tests. This is something we'll be testing this year, so stay tuned!
