Default FS: 3 sets of Yokahama Tear Off Slicks

FS: 3 sets of Yokahama Slicks (Advan A005) *** USED

$400 a set

Size
250/650
280/680

Condition:
All have been raced on and have about 1/2 life IMHO. Plenty of rubber. I am gentle on tires and don't slide them around. About 8 heat cycles on average. Good for practice or DE use. I find that they fall off very gradually and I get incredible wear.

I am sticking with Yok's just standardizing on a shorter rear tire (650 instead of 680)

$400 a set ** (buyer pays shipping or come and get them!)
New would be about $1900

They are in my trailer at BodyMotion in NJ
But I will have all of them with me at the Club Race at NJMP/thunderbolt 8/23/13

Nothing wrong with them. IMHO Maybe 2 seconds off WGI sticker pace at worse, but I don't have enough room in my trailer and truck for all the rubber I have. I can't kill them off fast enough in Practice or DE's.

I am carrying tires for my own car as well as my girlfriend's car. Running out of room and don't want to store over the winter.

Default Take-offs

I think we usually call them take-offs unless you have a special tire guy who likes to tear them off the rim

997/GTB1 - I like the Yok's because of their long and predictable wear. Fast out of the box and a very gentle fall off.

These are slicks, so you can't really compare them to R6's. At least for me.
