Morning all

I appreciate this is a dumb question - but hoping for some voices of experience.

I have just bought some Extreme VR2 tyres in the R5 soft compound. They are very soft incidentally - though in terms of times over the previous AR1s I was using its a bit inconclusive so far.

However, I have only done 15 miles TO Shelsley Walsh at road speed and 4 runs up the hill since putting them on the car.

Is this enough to scrub them in to have them be effective?

I was thinking about using them to drive up the A417/A49 early morning to Shrewsbury for Loton Park this weekend - is this going to help AT ALL - or is it all a bit much?

Once again - apologies for the dumbass question
