I was debating between buying new Kumho V710s or finding a set of used tires. Luckily I found this guy selling a bunch of used Hoosiers on ebay. He sounds like the type that uses them for the runoffs then dumps em.
$275 shipped.. 4 heat cycles on them. http://www.flickr.com/photos/infinitelydig...57594576411949/ I'm psyched! My first set of real sticky tires! Last season I managed to squeeze in a few autoxs on OLD BFG R1s. No grip for autox. Should be fun.. can't wait! I'm going to mount these flipped to get some extra life out of them. quote from tirerack.. "Additionally, their symmetric tread design allows them to be mounted on either side of the car (and later be remounted inside out to further extend their life)." |

I read Hoosier's recommendations on tire mounting several years ago on the s03's, it went kind of like this- mount them according to the directional arrows, with them facing out, unless you need to turn them around, then face the arrows in, pointing in the right direction, unless you can't, then run them backwards and inside-out, if you can.
