Did you tell him what group you were running in by any chance?

You want to try power ones, they are recommended 27f/22r IIRC!!!

That's what they recommend for supercorsas. The extra psi in the front helps it hold structure in fast corners (according to my contacts within the EMRA cup)

I'll probably be picking a set up at the weekend, ready to take to Donington next month.

Interesting...the Power Ones are still listed on Michelins website but those are't!

In fact. They look like the road version of the ones.

I'll stick to the ones as I love the V profile front!
