You going to run that and on what wheels?

 

I'm not. found on M.net. New hoosier tire

 

Ah that's the one that 949 is hoping to build the 15x10 6ULs for.

 

Ive been thinking really hard about getting a setup for those tires once i get my car settled into its motor, diff, new ecu, and I feel comfortable with how everything is working. I was thinking of diamond 15x10s for the wheels and trying to stuff it under the stock fender with camber and some pounding for sm2. But im gonna wait until i wear out my 205 azenis first.

 

Wonder how much they are. Guess I could go look. You know off hand? Thought I remembered something like $170 a tire, though i'm frequently mistaken.

 

dunno, 275/35/16s are $240 ea

 

ok they are $239 each from tirerack, so a step up from the $170 pricetag. Been doing a lot of reading about this tire, and it looks like it can be made to work (barely) in a miata without fender flares. It could also upset the balance in the autocross classes. we shall see

 

meh, I'll take ra-1's.

 

I like ra-1s for HPDE... but the hoosiers rock them grip wise.

 

Who can afford a g-bar in tires?

 

:gay: fixed

 

lol

 

lol ya its a bit expensive for someone like me who is just out there for fun. Maybe I should just go with a tried and true 225 slick and be happy

 

275s under stock fenders? how the hell do you do that?

 

Theres a couple guys over at m.net attempting it, and if they are successful then i guess i will know how as well. I would guess it would fit in the rear with rolled fenders, but in the front, getting the correct backspacing will be critical. Not sure if it will work, but I have a feeling that hoosier had a few cars in mind when they created this tire, the miata being one.
