Simon,
Did you have the Yoko's shaved? It makes sense they would not have the
grip of BFG R-1's or other racing radials. I'm just looking for
alternative 60 series tires for vintage. Dunlops and Avons are
expensive and the SCCA IT class radials are being frowned upon or being
ruled ineligible by many vintage clubs.
