Hi All, Ive recently bought a 1.6 Caterham Roadsport which came with a set of minilight style rims. I'm doing my first trackday soon and would like to stick a set of lightly used slicks on just in case the weather is dry & hot (fat chance of that you say!!)Can anybody recommend makes and sizes as I haven't got a clue. All 4 rims are the same size 14" X 7" Thankyou

Hi, Thankx for all the replies, I'm gonna bow to superior knowledge, now thinking toyo 888S, Avons, Yokos or similar for a better option.
