I'm looking for another set of R compound track tires. I currently run Victoracers, 225/50-16 and 245/45-16's. I am in the process of cording my left front. Right front will need replacement soon. Rears? eh.. maybe a 2-3 more DE days out of them, certainly not in the rain, though. Figured I would chew them all up at the autocross this weekend and then get new tires for Summit Point in June.
Checked out Tire Rack. Replacement Victoracers are $140/$160 F/R each. They are also having a "special" on the A032R's (hard compound) - $150 each. (And yes, I know they are loud. and I have run them before and find them a bit less sticky than Khumos) I would also consider the Toyo RA-1's, but don't know where to find them. Don't want the new Khumos, 710's I think they are- waaayy too soft for me. What "R" compounds are folks running these days? How do you like them and why? Do you drive to events on them as well? (I do).
