Occasional track use, everyday mileage
The tyre discussion was framed around occasional 25-minute track sessions and useful road life. It compared the cost of replacement tyres with the possibility of a separate track wheel set.
| Decision | Constraint in the discussion |
|---|---|
| One tyre set or two | Track use had to be balanced against everyday durability and replacement cost. |
| Smaller track wheels | The appeal was lower cost, but fitment on the Highland Performance still needed to be established. |
| Equal wheel-and-tyre sizes or the stock arrangement | The alignment discussion repeatedly returned to the different front and rear tyre sizes. |
| Next purchase | The final tyre conversation moved towards requesting quotes, not confirming an order. |
What to preserve
The useful record is the comparison: why consider a dedicated set, which fitment questions matter for this particular car, and how tyre cost affects the next upgrade.
Historical shop prices and compatibility claims are left out of this note. No final wheel-and-tyre combination or measured track result was recovered.
