    If they're rated anything like the old Michellin TB's then 5's would be the hardest and 20's would be the softest compound.

    Ok, no I personally don't recognise the S308, but that maybe the compound. 20/54/13 is the size...

    Thanks Tim.

    It wasn't me that enquired about them anyway really, it was forest rallying. I was just sticking my oar into the conversation with regards to the question he asked you about the Tyre compound. Apologies...
    Thanks anyway...

    Rob

    S308 is the type, often used for tarmac rallying, they used to be cheap to buy as they were used on F3 race cars.

    If they are Race tyres they are in theory not permitted for Rallies. Normally it says on the sidewall Not for Highway use. A lot used Avon F3 tyres back in the day for single venue events until they banned them.

    I am like Rob on the compounds of the older TB 15's and SB 20's.
