Wheels and tires
I raced my rx7 for the first time and am serious need of tires. I am on a very limited budget and would ideally like some 17s with a 255 or bigger width. If anyone has some used tires that they are wanting to get rid of cheap please pm me
I know you probably don't want to buy new, but I found some General UHPs on closeout a few weeks ago

Race or Street rubber? Do you have wheels wide-enough for such width? Race tires seem to be less-sensitive to "over-tiring" than streets.Ls1rx7 wrote:Would be open to 18s well. The more research I do, the more I think I need 295-315 width. I need that's much grip as possible
Squish a 295 street tire on an 8" rim, you're just wearing the tires to death, and not really getting any better return on traction than a 255 on the same rim, except the tires cost more.
