Tyres

[RT3]

Hi everyone

What are the best tyres to use for trackdays on an Atom 3?

Thanks

R888, but they are no longer made and haven't been in the right size for a long time, so AO48 if you can get hold of them, but they're no longer made, which leaves Avon ZZR, which I haven't tried but have heard good things about.

Toyo R888R is made in Atom sizes but no idea if they are a good idea.

I’ve just nailed my AO52s so need new track day only tyres.

Anyone got any views?

Just get some Nankang AR1’s they’re better than Toyos and readily available.

I’m the new owner of an Ariel Atom 3.5R. The car came from
Ariel where I bought it with Yokohama A052 tyres. Can anyone recommend the correct tyre pressures for this tyre?

It's not a tyre I've ever used, but it's discussed here.
