Hi, I have bought RoRo and RaRa performance tyres instead of Evo, is there much difference? Please don't tell me the Performance tyres are useless or something! :?

    Perf is the 'base' tyre. Dual compound standard sidewalls, sometimes wire, sometimes folding. Evo means triple compound, and then a choice of sidewalls... Perf tyres arent that great IMHO.

    The performance compound is OK, doesn't like wet roots or rocks at all though....
