We often get asked about our range of tyres, and since it's so vast I thought it would be a good idea to create a little guide on which type and compound suits which surface/ability level and how to identify them. So let's get cracking... Arc Angle Tyres These are generally a beginner tyre, and come in several compounds - and come with RTR and S spec chassis. Great Angle Tyres These are a good intermediate tyre, with an angled edge that allows you to run bigger offset wheels and work well with negative camber. Great Angle CS Tyres These are slower than the Great Angle tyres, and a great for tighter twinning. GA26 Tyres These are our Pro tyres, with the hard compound (silver dot) being the very best carpet tyre we have come across. These are identified by the "MAX SPEED TECHNOLOGY" marking on the side wall.
Different compounds have different grip levels. Less grip = slower but it's not as simple as just saying they have less grip. It's about matching settings to the surface so you still have grip in the corners when needed.
