Has anyone ever used silverstone tyres? They dont look very agressive for rally?

Hehehe... You spell Tyres the proper way :D Do you fill up with Petrol as well?
Got a link to the tyres? I've never heard of silverstone tyres...
BTW.. are you looking fr an aggressive Snow tyre for rally-x? Try looking for a Kelly WinterMark... Dunno if they make 'em your size, But I like them better than WinterForce tyres, in the snow anyways, they have more gap between the lugs...

I knew someone was going to say this about spelling.. it was only a matter of time :-)
No I have not heard anything about those tyres... yet that is.. I have always had great luck with Blizzaks WS-50 but they ware quick at times. This year I am trying a set of Perelli Winter Carving Edge

Which tire are you refering to?

In general, the Silverstones are very good rally tires for the price. Somewhere between Hankook and BFG/Michelin in terms of performance (probably more on the BFG side of that equation).
Personally never run them, but know several teams in Canada that run them exclusively and I've never heard anything negative about them.
edit: now if you are talking about the SnowBlitz street/winter tire, no experience with those at all. Looks like it would be aobut the same as a Blizzak or Nokian looking at the pictures.
