Give R-Tec a call -- normally quite cheap on tyres (honest!) and have a good stock...

Surely you can never have *too* much grip though?

I have found a buyer for the Corsa and my recent money issues are okay again.
Too excessive for my car? Next month or 2 I'll have around 250-260bhp going through my front wheels and Astra turbo's are renowned for having poor traction. I need all the grip I can get!
Thinking of getting some soft compound A032-R's for the drag strip.
