Good Place to buy the Toyo R1R ?

Good question. I think Seb uses tireshoppe.com which I guess changed names to treadzone.com:

Tire deals 4 less:

Lots of local shops like C2 Motorsports (talk to Steve Coe) carry them as well. Availability is always the story for local shops:

I use Joe Specht at treadzone.com (new name)
Their tireshaving is best I've seen. Though, till it gets really hot, I'm not sure tireshaving is necessary.

I noticed $20 for shaving and $20 for shipping per tire on the website. I always call and so far all my tires this year have been $15/15. Don't know if Joe just charges me less over the phone or a racer discount or if prices just went up???

I'd have gotten them from Steve Coe if he could shave them! But like I said, I'm not so sure shaving is necessary now.

Thanks ... R1R's, not RA1's ... but good link.

(Mike ... I'll have that spring with me at the Z event. Thanks again )

I go to JLB Motorsports (951) 734-4411.
Availability depends on size.

The 225/45x15 R1R's I hear are on a 6 week back order

That's because Steve Ekstrand is going through them faster than they can make 'em! }:)

[Jonathan Lugod]

damn... im still on my first set of stones

[Jeff Wong]

Im acutally impressed with how long these have lasted considering that they have over 100+ runs and 40% of the runs were on El Toros surface.

[Jeff Wong]

oh forgot to mention the 3/4" toe out that I had at the team blew practice when I lowered the car. Thanks Greg with the help on that.

We buy our tires from onlinetires.com. It was the last set.

I got my R1R's in 225/45/15 from JLB motorsports too. They didn't have them in stock when I called but they called me back two days later with them in hand.
