OK - I can get some nice cheap V70 but only in soft compound
205 front and 235 rear as medium for teh fronts is at least 7 weeks.

Anyone tried soft compound ?

Any thoughts on mixing soft front medium rear ?

Ok …

Maybe if I mention I can get these for less than 400 quid a complete set incl VAT I might get some interest …

What profile are they, and can you only get the fronts in soft?

16 Inch come only 205/45ZR size for 7 inch rim
17 Inch are either 225/45/17 for a 7.5 inch rim or 235/40/17 for an 8.5 inch rim

Reading various posts it seems that the best combination with the 205 fronts is 235/40 rears to try and keep a balance and is possible with the Exige rim sizes.

All sizes are Hard, Medium and Soft but stock at moment is limited to fronts soft and rear either. Medium fronts would be 7 weeks minimum …

Hence the idea to try the softs … having said that I was hoping someone else had tried it

So you can get 205/45 16 and 235/40 17 in Soft/Soft or Soft/Medium for under 400 notes all in? That is interesting

Would Medium/Medium be a similar price just with the longer wait?

Any thoughts on 245/40 R17s on the rear? 240R wheels.

Same price - longer ( unknown but min 7 week ) wait

Good question on 245 … I’ll check but as the 16 inchers were the expensive bit I cant see it running much higher cost at all … oh and the 8.5 inch rim remains the recommended size …

I’d be interested in some mediums when they come in
