Hi people!

I just wanna know if the brand of the tyre (Michelin, Evostar, CromoPlain, Torro, etc) has any impact in the grip, wear or anything, or it's just cosmetic.


Thanx!

just cosmetic I'm afraid

Thanx a lot.

Although my Noob question, I've been playing for some time now (3 months aprox) and I'm S2 since 2 weeks ago

Tip: Stay away from those cheap Torro import tyres, they fall apart in hot conditions after 10 laps.
I've swapped my texture file over to Bridgestone, Goodyear, Michelin and Yokohama now.
Welcome to S2!

No, it doesn't make a difference, but iirc Scawen once (about April last year) said that they would get different specs at some point in the future...

i wonder how that will work out ... atm we have 3 types of slicks per car 2 of which are more or less useless afaik even the moe drivers run on r2s

I guess the harder compounds will come into play once we have different (hotter) track conditions available. Or maybe there's simply still a considerable chunk missing regarding the dynamics of tyre heating and wear, which makes the soft compounds overly effective.
