Anyone any advice about what are the best 10" tyres for Hillclimbs from List 1A or List 1B of the Blue Book, or should I just stick with my A539s on 12". I believe thee is an A008 that is eligible but what about the other manufacturers.

Can I rephrase that as I now realise that at Harewood, only List 1A is acceptable...

The A008 are very good they do grip a lot more than the A5 but dont know if they are i the blue book or not now. Avon also used to do a very good 10" vert soft and good for sprints.

I use 10" A008 for list 1a and Yoko 32R for 1b . Cannot imagine them rules changing for 2014? The 32Rs are great fun when hot! :-)

when I re checked it is only 1A for Harewood and Yokohama say the A008 are the best option.
They gave me the address of my nearest stockist, I called in on saturday and am ringing them back later today for a price.
Few things to do before the season starts and wife wants to go away for a week the same day as the first meet.
Then it's MoT time.
Can we not arrange exemption for 42 year old cars?

MiniSpares are under £50 each and seem to always have them in stock

Cheers, forgot to check them, and considering the amount I've bought from them over the years.....
Need to add fitting of course.
