Going out to the track? One of the first upgrades needed other than brakes for a track event or race car is going to be tires. Upgrading to a DOT legal race tire or R-compound race tire is always a smart choice. Believe it or not, a race tire will last longer than your street tires when you are pushing your car to the limit on the track. A street tire cannot handle the heat that is generated during race conditions and the tread will start to blister and chunk, which will make your expensive street tires worth nothing in one session. Go with one of our race tires and you will enjoy better handling and longevity.
