Tyre Options for C63 507

[nightSpirit]

I know I recently proclaimed 'I'm buying an A45!', but after another test drive in a 507...I'm now thinking otherwise.

One thing I've been trying to work out (on either car) is should I get a second set of wheels for track tyres or just run the normal wheels with more track focused/road legal rubber. I'm thinking 6 track days a year and 15k miles...would equate to 5 sets of rubber (not counting the first set that come with the car).

Can anyone tell me what the stock tyres are on the A45 and C63 (235/35/19 on A and 235/35/19, 255/30/19 C) and what track day ish brand would be good? I've been looking at Dunlop SportMaxx Race, R888s or Cup 2s. I know track rubber is compromised in the wet/winter and won't last as long on the road.

Any thoughts welcome.

Thanks for the reply. Do they hold up well to road use and perform on track?

Perfect, will check prices then and see if it works out cheaper to run 6 sets of cups over 3 years rather than rims and specific tyres for certain duties.

[nightSpirit]

What type of cup tyre? Is it Cup, Cup2, Cup Plus?

Also would a 265 fit on the 8" rim

All sorted I think, thankyou. R888s are the only ones in my sizes.

[nightSpirit]

C63 sizes. 235/35/19 fronts and 265/30/19 rear. Can't find new cups in those sizes

Thanks Bradders, that's another option. Sounds fun
