Re: FS SYD: Race / Track wheels and tyres.
Just added pics of the other tyres. Surprised no one has snapped these up yet tbh.
Perfect for track days. Would be much faster than normal 'street' semi slicks.

Sorry Dras, sold. For $200 you should try your hand at a set of slicks
Big difference over semis. One of those 'you'll never go back' moments. Yes you'll need another set of rims but so worth it

Re: FS SYD: Race / Track wheels and tyres.
I have a spare set of rims and I am very tempted.
Realistically how many track days do you think I could get out of them? Do they go off if not used for a few months?

Re: FS SYD: Race / Track wheels and tyres.
There is still around 1.5 to 2mm tread depth on them. Bear in mind slicks and true semi slicks only start off with around 5mm or less tread depth new. It's not so much the tread depth with race tyres as it's the number of heat cycles that determines their life.
As a race tyre this set is no longer competitive as they've simply been cycled too many times. But as an occasional track tyre, they'll still be better than most semi slicks (excepting Yokohama AO50 and any true soft compound semi) and you'd probably still get 2, 3 or more track days out of them. Run them until they're completely worn out as they won't get any 'slower' (used in a relative sense to new slicks) than they are now. Just depends how hard you push them. When you think about it a track day in a street car is bugger all actual track time on the tyres.
And $50 bucks each (bear in mind they're $450 new) you'll have a lot more enjoyment out of this $200 at WP than you will out of double that money in semis imo. Having raced on both there's no way I'd ever go back to semi slicks. Just not in the same ballpark.
