Hoosier R6 in 295 30 19

I was ready to order a set today. Then I just saw the price jumping up to $380?!? Anyone know of a cheaper place? I should not have gotten those

Try a Google search prices move around often
Also I found a used Hoosier vendor that I'd recommend. Will dig that up and post here later

the 295/40-18s I run are only 20 less per tire. not really that big of a savings.

You can buy scuffs in 18s, not in 19s I am looking at a set of Enkeis now, might be cheaper to just buy more rims. My wife is going to love it

Thanks for the offer, but I am looking at R6s. At the rate I use tires, they will be worn out after each event. I am also looking at non DOT tires too.

.. in case anyone else is interested in buying "scuffs" or used hoosiers... works great for me, 90% of tire for half the price... yes, you need a more common size like 245 18s or 275 18s, another reason to run a square 275 setup!

Performancetread. The GoodYear RS comes in both road compound and autocross compound. The road compound is similar to R6. The autocross compound is like A6.
