      Stradman, congrats on the upcoming delivery. I’ve been running the Kumho’s. Bought piles of them so I don’t have any productive input on other tires.. AZ Viper is running Hoosiers and seems to like them, but I don’t believe they are DOT legal?

      If To/From is your plan, KumhoV720s are your tire. Align accordingly, and pay diligent attention to cold temps/operating temps, to maximize tire wear, (and minimize adverse tire wear.)

      We have had them in stock, even when some “biggies” did not. $1375/set of 4….. or $679/pr for fronts.

      Hello everyone,
      I am about to take delivery of my ACR-E. The car was purchased primarily for track purposes. I basically want to drive to the track and be able to drive back home afterwards.
      I have done a lot of reading on these forums about the tires for this purpose and have heard various opinions including perhaps using R7 Hoosiers etc. I have heard that the front Kumho's don't last more than 1 day if that but the rears appear to last. So with this in mind what tires do you track rats use for this car?? I just need to reach a consensus as to the best combo tire in order to prepare as best I can in terms of what to stock up/ and buy!
      Many thanks
