Thanks for clarifying. I think the R7 is the smarter choice for HPDE, as it's not like shaving a few tenths off a lap time is going to make the difference between winning the trophy and taking second place.

Anecdotally, they felt "meatier" like there is more tire between me and the road (thickness) but my times were not better than the RR. In the context of cost, the Hoosier is $430 and the RR is $230. Since I tried them for the first time at LRP, I don't have enough laps there to really know. I will have a better idea tomorrow at NYST. Tire wear is excellent! This is the front driver side, the one that works hard at LRP. Tomorrow at NYST, the front passenger gets to work hard. . |

Here is the same tire from the original picture in this post. I did two track days on them then had them swapped on the rims and they now have 4.5 track days total. What do you think?
My front alignment is -2.75 with zero toe. Will a bit more camber help with less inside wear? Is there another track day left in them? Maybe run them backwards? |
