[Land-speed] Tire Diameter

[Elon]

At more than $420 per tire do you want them to do double duty? I don't know
your other application but if you don't need a certified 200+ mph tire why
not choose something less expensive?  -Elon

I was told to get 28" rear tires for my roadster, which I did. The car will
run this year, maybe in excess of 160 if I didn't screw up too badly.I need
to buy tires for another hot rod, and I'm thinking I could get speed tires
to do double duty if necessary.
