they only have about 4mm on to start tho Dan

so you'll be fine

I think the MLR have tyre support at spa aswell, so you can get some new rubber if you need too

That doesn't fill me full of confidence!

Mine have 2mm, using every day, and there going to the ring and Spa, they will be fine, dont panic

And you can get some whilst your out there if your worried

Cups with as much as 3 mm tread left ?!?! U'll be fine m8

as they are almost NEW.
Road rubber like the G.Y. F1s wear out quicker on TDs. I lost 3-4 mm in four Track Days

What about the inner edge mm? They eats Cups with Neg Camber for Road!

Think I may post a few pics of mine in the Tech Area.

Guilty as charged

What's the panic about Cups wearing out? Mine last very well and wear evenly despite running a minimum of -2 degrees. Set up is critical. Get that right and they wear beautifully.

Been over to Ring with 2mm (and less

) many times and get back on them fine.
