I am running Volk CE28Ns in the 7.5"/9" combination with Hoosier R3S04s in 225/45 and 275/40. I really love the tires, but since I can run slicks or any other tire I want, I am looking to explore other options.

Is there anything out there that will outperform the Hoosiers?

I have looked for slicks, but have yet to find them - any tips on where to find slicks in my sizes (or something close)?

Thanks in advance

Not in 17". You'll need to go to 18's to run slicks and they'll be a fair bit faster than the hooisers.

225 in front? you find that pushes much? I'm trying to find a tire that makes a bigger than 245 front as I really could use more front rubber (245/275)

On dunlap slicks Dave and I ran 250/280 Dunlap Slicks (~265/~300 in US sizes)

The series that I run is primarily at one track. On that track I am doing good with the 225s - I get a little push in the slowest turn on the track, but that is easily corrected with the right foot - it is actually a perfect turn for throttle steering the car.

I guess I will have to wait until next year to get some new wheels and go to slicks.

Thanks for the info.
