For those of you who used both brands on the race track -
which ones did you like best? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_flagge24.gif)
Sorry - I'm not interested in what auto crossers think.

I know Hoosiers are stickier, but they wear out to fast for me.
I am open to other suggestions (available in 225-50-16 & 245-45-16).

Toyo's all the way! I've run them for the last 5 years at DE and vintage race events. I can get 20 to 22 track days out of a set. Great bang for the buck. The interesting question is what tire pressure do people use?
