Fs: Michelin 270Mm X 650Mm X 18" Race Slicks. Much Faster Than Semi Slicks


Recommended Posts

Much faster then semi Slicks

I have 6 of these tyres in total in this size for sale. $150 each with plenty of race miles left in them.

2x in the softest compound S7 and 4x in the better race compound S8

The S7's are good for a few laps for a really fast time and are preferred by Time Attack cars but are not as consistent all day as the S8 compounds

The S8's do not go off and are preferred by most racers as they are consistent until completely worn out.

I drove a Commodore once at Eastern Creek til the canvas was exposed and the 8's were good up til that last lap. Amazing tyres.

Michelin recommend fitting to 10" to 11.5" rims but I know they work fine on 9" upwards to 11.5"

Always stored indoors (except on occasions when car is outside of course)

$660 each new. http://europeantechnique.com.au/michelin/Tyres/slick%20wet.htm

Located NW Sydney for pick up or I will ship anywhere via TNT

Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney $12.50 per tyre

PM me your email address and I will send you photos with tread depths marked. Generally 2 to 3mm plus across the tread so very usable tyres

For those wondering about how to compare the sizes of these slicks to street tyres, slicks are measured very simply

Michelin measure how wide it is = 270mm of tread width

Then they measure how high the whole tyre is = 650mm high

To compare them to your street tyres get a tape measure on your tyres and see how they compare.

If yours are 245 wide street tyres actually measure them as some 245s are less then 245mm and some more than 245mm

Then estimate if there is space for these slicks so they do not hit your guards or suspension

It is actually simpler than the street aspect ratio measurng system once you get your head around it

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
