Toyo RA1 on Track Wheels
Had Toyo RA1's mounted on my stock track wheels for auotx. 225/40/18 fronts 275/35/18 rear. The 275's fit very well on the 8.5" rear rims. I removed the pressure sensors to install in my everyday wheels. Wear rating 40, they got to be sticky. Pics to follow.

Those look great! I wondered about going with 275s on Track wheels. I wish I had gone that wide now. Michelin Pilot Sports are going on Thursday. You will have to post about how they handle at your next Auto-x.
I have those same pads your wheels are leaning agains. Ha! Ha! Got the from Sam's for my home gym...

225/275 is WAY too much stagger. Those are mid engined or Porsche type tire staggers and that is why Toyo just came out with those staggers in the 18" sizes. That is why I dropped down to 17" wheels and am running 255/275. For AUTOX, you could even run 275's all around.
