Avon 275/570/R15 Radial slick
Anyone ever heard of these? 10.7" thread!

Maybe a good option for the wide-body cars running 10's.

LOL I saw that. I wonder why there is not more info listed? Is it discontinued or soon to be released?
Stuffing that 275 is going to enough of a challenge with 10.7" thread and 11.4" section width. I can't imagine what that 290 will be like.
Looks like we are finally seeing tires that will take big HP Miatas to the next level.

Looked over that list and found a few tires that would be of interest to me if they would offer SCCA contingency
I think with this set up and if it were offered in a DOT type tire the Miata's biggest issue in SSM would be taken care of.
Radial Slicks:
290 570 R15 - Front
330 620 R15 - Rear
Bias Ply Slicks:
10.5/23.0-15
11.0/23.5-15
12.5/23.5-15

Roger Kraus is who I called to get more details. I guess they were pretty jammed up Friday cause I never heard back. Bummer no contingency program. Can't wait to see what Sav's machine can do with some 290's. Being able to finally harness all of that power will yield some interesting times. Guess I gotta get that built motor installed.

Here is the 225 H2O beside a 275 A6
And here the 225 H20's are on 9" wheels and the 275's are on 10" wheels
Considering that in standing water conditions a slightly narrower tire than what you run in the dry it typical I think the new 225 H20 wet is a game changer. Especially on a car with ABS and Race Logic Traction Control.
