Ive ruined the rear tyres on the back of my car playing around on some local tarmac, im wondering what make / manufacturer of tyre is a good long lasting all round drift tyre? will a hard compound tyre last longer than a super soft gripy tyre??
im going to get a set of 17"s and have them as narrow on the rear as on the front unlike the standard staggered set up im running now.
anyone here use an e46 for drifting?
im finding the clutch is a self adjusting type that is designed to let itself slip instead of getting a good bite and possibly damaging the clutch plate its annoyed me since I got the car and im looking to change it to an aftermarket jobbie without the SAC.
any good places to practice and mess around in the Surrey/South london area?  |
Tyres arn't a lasting item mate. Better off either buying cheap ones for the rear if you can afford it, or do what most people here do; go hunting in the tyre piles at local places. Most people go through at least 4 in a practice day, many do a lot more.
Best places to learn near here are either Santa Pod DWYB or Lydd near rye (see events section)
3 series Bimmers are very capable skid car
