Dual Duty Autocross/Street Tires OR Autocross Only? Your recommendations are needed! Pros/Cons? Which tires for each duty??
Time to replace my worn stock RSA’s. Thank GOODNESS!
I just started Autocross racing and love it. I have the stock rims on my 2.4L Sky and need the stock tire size 245/45-18. My Sky is a fair weather daily driver and tries to stay parked when rain is forecasted, so I’m OK with Summer Only Tires.
Help.
1) Replace worn stock tires with High Performance Street tires for daily driving & Autocross racing. (Suggested Make/Model??)
2) Buy a set of rims & Autocross tires. They MUST be drivable on the street since I won’t trailer. I’ll need to change them at home before racing. Travel distance may be up to 150 miles one way. I’ll still have to buy replacement tires for street driving. (Suggested Make/Model??)
Cost:
$1000+ Replacement Street Tires
$1800+ New Rims & Race Tires (Add replacement street tires = $3000!!!)
PROBLEM…The Cost!! Which choice will be the CHEAPEST in the LONG run?
For only 2 minutes of racing on a Sunday this is becoming VERY expensive.
