"slick tyres"

[jukeboxman]

Possibly a silly question, but can't you create your own slicks from worn tyres?

Last winter we ran GT14 RTR cars in Grantham, on carpet indoors. I ran one set of scale treaded tyres that came with the car , they were almost bald towards the end of the season but it was hard to detect any lack of grip as they've worn out.

If you've got an old set of mini pins/ spikes, mount them in a drill and sand them to slicks...worth a go at recycling?
