    Question Blockley tires?

    Has anyone here tried Blockley tires yet? They make both 165vr15s and 185/70vr15s. Thinking about them for my 6s. Looks to be really good introductory prices

    For a road cars we tend to the Vredestien Sprint Classic in 185 x 60 x 15. Decent pricing and work quite well.

    For Trackdays we use Kumho V70A Ecsta in a 185 x 70 x 15 which are available in Soft, Medium and Hard compound.

    We tried the Blockley's briefly on a SWB car with a 200BHP motor and didn't get on with them.

    I think they did poorly in the recent Euro mag tire test of classic tires.

    Wouldn't fit a Blockley even if it was free!
