Anyone know anything about them? Looks like a new tire that will be spec tire for Miata and 944 series which means they come in 914 sizes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
They are a track tire, but wonder how they will do for autocrossing. Similar to the Kuhmo V710 but not as good as Hoosier A6? |

I've been using the V710s for a couple of years and really like them. Don't think they're quite as sticky as the A6, but they hold up well and are cheaper than A6s. Just saw the RRs and thought maybe they would be competitive with the V710s and are cheaper yet.
Clearly a track and not an autocross tire, but so is the V710 yet it does pretty good on the autocross course. How about the Hankook Ventus Z214 in the C71 soft compound. Also a bargain compared to the Hoosiers or Kuhmos, but gets pretty good reviews on TireRack |
