Found myself with a bit of a problem with Avon being out of buisness and imagine I’m not the only one with the same issue. Currently running Avon ZZS’s, 185/55R13 on the front and 245/50R13 on the rears (mounted to 11 inch wide rims). MOT is due in a few weeks, and have a couple of track days planned beforehand, and think my current tyres will end up being close to the limit. I could get another set of wheels to suit a set of AR-1s but really don’t want to drop down to 9inch rears, or fork out to have a set made to match the current offsets etc. One thing I’ve thought of possibly doing is getting a set of used slicks/wets from tyretek and saving the ZZS’s for road use, but not sure about suspension setup and the changes I’d need to make between the slicks and road tyres. Any suggestions or any inside info on whether Nova are going to soon put ZZS’s back into production? Or anyone with a set of 245’s with lots of life left in them that they would part ways with? 😉 Cheers -Jaime

sorry I didn’t see this until now. It’s all still available

Having almost written my car off in 2004 by a big aquaplane, I can't emphasise enough how lethal wide tyres and a very light car combination could be.

I know.....😃

Sorry no I didn’t know ! Apologies I’m not great with technology!

Would you post the tyres. If I cover the costs

If we have 5 or more people interested we can open the cafe for breakfast and lunch for £20 a head

I did, driving back from a meet once and it was ‘interesting’! Plenty of aquaplaning and just had to go slow.

Not sure if you're aware but you can just post your pics straight into the thread?

just a quick note to say that due to the unpredictable weather we have postponed Ferring Bluebird Cafe to next weekend (12th or 13th)

Yeeeeaahh, count me out! ❄️⛈️🌧🌩⛄️⛄️⛄️⛄️⛄️⛄️

Wondering if anyone has a used one spare. Mine is waiting to be looked at but if they have no luck saving it I'll have to find a replacement. Thanks

It's stopped here now, but looks like more coming...

Try driving on hail for two hours in the Alps on them in 2019!- Focuses the mind!

Yep, I find R888Rs very good in most conditions too. Never tried them in standing water but definitely wouldn't fancy that unless it's in a car park for handling practice 😁

Road test, not a chance. It's like a river!!

Car looks fab Steve 👍

Not bothered about rain, unless is too hard. The tyres are R888R and are surprisingly good on the damp. The thing they don’t like is standing water when they can get quite lairy! My side doors seal very well (rubber trim around the front and bottom edge), so I don’t get water spraying up into the car. I wasn’t expecting rain today so didn’t take my half hood or even a coat, was just in shorts and T shirt. It’s fine so long as you are moving, gets a little damp when you have to stop! I go out in most weathers, salty roads are the main thing I avoid.

Been out to a local pub meet this morning. Wasn't popular as the exhaust blows all the dust in the car park, whoops !
