Keyser Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 I now have the Radical and currently it is running on front - 200/580 R15 rear - 235/605 R16 Dunlop Wets, now I need some new rears all new Radical's run 265/605 R16 and they no longer make the 235/605 R16 According to Radical my rimms will not take the new tire - can't see why not Anyway anyone know where to get an equivalent tire from?? This is my rear at the moment - Thanks Quote
NeilMH Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 On the face of it there appear to be some for sale on the Radical Owners Club website if I have read it correctly but it would mean the owner splitting the sale. Quote
GMballistic Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 ^^ Just had a look at Demon Tweeks and can't see anything that fits the bill Stevo. Maybe worth a phone call though Keyser. What about zmanalex? not sure if I'm talking BS here but I could have sworn I remember him saying something about slicks?! Quote
Humpy Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 You checked shed 1, shed 2, shed 3, the zed shed and under your pillows. You not having something lying around is like me not eating, never happens 1 Quote

Keyser Posted October 14, 2014 Author Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) Thanks all for your efforts gotta love this place Been in touch with hptyres - Dunlop no longer make the 235/605 R16 it was replaced with the 265 version. Saw the link in the ROC as well thanks for the link I have also been in touch with a race team who funnily enough run Radicals - they Have 22 in the garage at the moment The well informed gentleman I spoke to said - the 265 will fit and would be nothing to worry about for track or sprint use, can't use them in the Radical series (not that I need to), when I asked why he said so Radical can sell more wheels He can supply both wet and dry Dunlops, 1 race use and guarantee they will be good, more than fit for track and hill climb use, and they are a fraction of new cost and to top it all he has a set of the same wheels I have with a set of good slicks that he is willing to sell cheap as they are no good for series racing, he said buy the wheels get the tyres free - waiting for him to confirm prices. So hopefully I now have a tire supplier and possibly a spare set of wheels so I can carry slicks and wets to track But thanks again all that looked around for me Edited October 14, 2014 by Keyser 1 Quote
