New tyres

thegingerninja · 03-02-2021, 04:59 PM

Need a full set as the current tyres are old cups and now out of date.
I have 2 questions:
1. What tyre is everyone using now - is it the pilot cup sport 2? (I stopped track use a few years back, so it’s only road use in the summer, but I’d still like some sticky Michelins.)
2. I still use the original CSL rims. What is the the tyre size? I think I remember reading somewhere that you can fit a very slightly wider tyre than BMW originally fitted? I think they look a bit better and offer a bit more rim protection.....so to speak!
Thanks
Simon
