Hi All,
You=E2=80=99ll have to forgive me for this question, as I=E2=80=99m sure it=
=E2=80=99s frequent and the inter webs hates these questions! =C2=A0=C2=A0
I=E2=80=99m having trouble getting good data for our cars on current vintag=
e tire selection. =C2=A0 I=E2=80=99m running a 15x7 wheel on my TR4; last y=
ear I ran 225/45/15 Hoosier street TDS (and a very used set at that). I=E2=
=80=99m thinking of going with:
Option 1: =C2=A0225/50/15 Toyo R888ROption 2: =C2=A023x7.5 15 Hoosier stree=
t TDROption 3: =C2=A0225/50 15 Hoosier speedster.=C2=A0
What do y=E2=80=99all run? =C2=A0 I=E2=80=99m thinking that maybe the Hoosi=
ers would be faster on the first race weekend, but end of the season the To=
yo would be faster- but that=E2=80=99s a guess. =C2=A0 What would you pick =
and why? =C2=A0 =C2=A0Any other tire I should consider?

Thanks in advance!

Hi David, check with the racing group(s) you plan on running with too. HRG
will allow any DOT or treaded tire designated to be of a vintage racing
spec. Many other groups, VRG, SVRA, VSCCA etc, are not as lenient.

thanks
mike
