Tyres For Formula Student U.K.

[sarim]

Hello Everyone,
We are an international team that is participating in the Formula Student competition U.K. and we have already built and shipped our car (...waiting for the applause to die down). So we are facing a problem. We need a set of wets of the following size:
20.0 x 7.5-13
We have already talked with hossier and sadly enough they wont be at Silverstone this time around. Can anyone guide us where we could find the tyres in London. Phone numbers and addresses are most welcomed.
Thanks!

Sarim,
If you are without rain tyres as you arrive in the UK, you may have to use a set of regular street passenger car tyres. Getting a set of Hoosier "wets" if you have not already ordered them is very un likely.

Whatever you do, you will definitely need another set of wheels on which to mount your "rains", even if they are steel wheels. Do NOT think of trying to have your "dries" dismounted and "rains" fitted to the same wheels at the competition.

Does anyone know if Avon will have a tent set up?

I've not seen one before, but if, as stated above, Hoosier aren't coming, maybe Avon will come instead..

Sarim, I'm sure there is a big team out there who have dozens of tires that they might be able to loan you if it does get wet, if you're really nice you may get some wheels too.
What wheel fitment do you require?

Hi Sarim,

We have a set of 20.0 x 6.5-13 Hoosier Wets. I know that's not quite right but if you are really in need of them and they are able to fit your wheels, we will bring them with us and have them in Pit 5C (University Of Hertfordshire) to sell.
