245/50/15 Dunlop SP… too old, can’t get that size anymore. Need to jump to 18” or 17” to find good tires

That sucks. I was hoping you were onto something current

I see Hoosier has track/autocross rubber in 15” sizes. Have you ever run them? Tread wear rating is 40 though. Is there a 100 or 200 min for the autocross you do?

I drive it on the street a lot. A 17” or 18” will allow me to go wider because I can jump the upper ball joint and run 5.25-5.5” backspace

I haven’t auto crossed it in years, but I take it up to the road course. Problem is that got bought out by rich Porsche guys and the track rental rates doubled.

Like to have a ~200 tread wear street radial.

As frustrating as it is, I understand why we cannot get stuff for our cars: low volume, low margin.

But surely 200 tread wear street tires for muscle cars would be popular, I think.

Yea. With the limited miles we put in them, the less wear resistance isn’t an issue.
