I'm looking for a good source for take off slicks for my 18x10s. Any suggestions?

For those of you that have run take offs, what compound/hardness do you recommend?

 

so you are gonna be allowed to keep the wheels?

here's who I used to use. haven't talked to him since early 2004.

EBAY!!!

 

I decided not to run in that class. Thanks for the contact info.


As for Ebay ... none there.

 

You have to constantly check--search under Hoosier tires on ebay.eventually they will popup. I have bought at least 20 tires 16s 17s and 18s.

 

Here are a few to try from the back of GRM:

1) www.jbracingtires.net

2) RC Enterprises, usdrctrs@aol.com, ph: 843.762.7324

3) Bob's Speed Products, ph: 954.764.5912

I also heard about www.tireswap.com

 

Thank you

Hoosier makes race slicks? I thought they were just DOT.

 

there isn't that much difference between hooiser dot and hooiser slicks (other than the groove). but yes the tires they run in grand-am are slicks.

how's bob's inventory these days? he's slinging hooisers I take it?

 

No 18s at all from Bob.

The guy at www.jbracingtires.net was most helpful. Nothing in stock right now, but he'll give me a call when they get some in.

The LSD in my diff is shot. Should I stick with stock or go with something else? I'll be replacing gears at the same time since it's open. I'm going to stick with 4.56 FD.

 

I've always run the stock diff.
