Default Rubber Tyres

Can anyone give me an indication of how long i would get out of a set of Sorex 28 JB's running on Primafelt GT?

Just wondering as i'm thinking of giving TC'c a go, and i'v only ever used foam in the past.

Depends on your motor and how you drive. At our club you can get a good 3 months (12 meetings) out of the tyres running 13.5 or 17.5 some get even more if running 17.5

We use CS grip additive.

I'm looking to run 13.5, any advice on application of additive? How long etc. Do you need to run tyre warmers? Typical track is shown in this link http://barleymowrccc.org/video.html

28JB at our club would last about 3 - 4 meetings. 32JB tend to last around 5 - 6 meetings. Additive to use would be LRP Carpet, Spidergrip Green or AME Carpet.
I usually apply additive full to all tyres for about 15 to 20 minutes. No heaters for 28JB but heaters about 40C for 32JB. That should be a good starting point.
