I’d love to hear how those two brands are considered “no-name.”

The only reason I know of those two brands and tire models are through Motorsport & recommendations from fellow track rats. I’m not going to go out and spend $1500 on tires if I’m only doing HPDE events at this time.

Because they are cheap and no one who takes track tires seriously would consider them. I'd certainly never put either one of those brands on my Z. I have heard of people using both though. To each their own.

Both brands were recommended to me by time attack competitors....LOL. Do you compete or are you just blowing smoke out your pooper?
