We still have some used one weekend and possibly some new 710 Kumho's for sale. One weekend take-offs are $350 a set plus shipping and new are 10% below Tire Rack. We also have one set of used one season Enkei 8.5 x 18 light weight racing wheels. I think they weight 18.3 #'s each. We have moved up to the larger width wheels that SCCA allowed and dont really need these. Call Rob Hines 703-989-1536 before 9pm EST please.

 

wat size are the kuhmos and were they heat cycled?

 

Most are 285/30R x 18. Might have a set or two of 245/35 x 18's. The used tires have been used for one weekend of SCCA racing: 1 practice session, 1 qualifying session which for us is 4 to 5 laps max. and one race which is about 40 to 45 minutes. We buy a set of new tires for every race.

I also have a set of new Kumho shaved Vittoracer V700's in 265/45 x 16. and one set of used V 710 in 265/45 x 16. Call Rob HInes at 703-989-1536

Last year we sold 8 sets of used tires and had no complaints.

 

+1 - I bought a set and am happy with the tires for the price.

 

+1 - I've bought two sets and am extremely happy.

 

Do you still have any left? PM'd you.

 

Do you have pictures of the Kumhos 285/30/18 on track rims?

 

Rob is a serious T2 racer. He runs the 285/30-18s on 10.5" Enkeis (legal for T2 racing), not on Rays track rims. I'm sure he'll tell you that you shouldn't try running that wide a tire on a 8.0-8.5" rim.

 

He's the one who told me you can install the 285/30/18 on the track rims, but I'll need to find someone experienced in installing these tires on 8" wide rims.

 

More details on the Enkeis, please...

 

Yes, it can be done, but it's going to be a true PITA.

 

285 Hoosiers mount easier than 285 Kumhos because of the offset bead on the Hoosiers.

Getting the tires on the wheels isn't that big an issue -- getting the bead to seat is the challenge.
