New ST tire

[Kurt Williams]

he ST rules state…



N. Tires & Wheels

1. Tires

a. All cars will use a D.O.T. approved tire of radial ply construction

with a molded tread pattern.



Would a Hoosier R6 be considered to have a “molded tread pattern”? They’re DOT radials and have two molded grooves. Two grooves is a “molded tread pattern” in my book!

What tire(s) is everyone going to run this season?

must be 140 treadwear or higher to run in ST.

why bother with hoosiers when most ST guys are on Toyos ;)

personally i'll be on bridgestones for the year

ST in the original context = Super Touring, a new SCCA roadracing classification, for which Hoosiers are legal.

I was at Pep Boys trying to buy some wheel spacers today (which they no longer carry--the supply at stores is all there is and all mine were OUT).

But while I was there in the tire section I saw some good stuff for Jonathan, Seb, Jeff, and Kyle to try out. The Allstars are stuck on stones....
