What is your goal?

=20

Handling in dry weather?  Handling in wet weather?  Long life?  Snow?  =
Those are 4 very different tires.

We went with these:  https://www.ranteer.com/davescars/tr6/scan0058.jpg

These are called "Ultra High Performance Sport" or "Streetable Track =
Tires"..

Tire Size: 205/50ZR15 Extra Load

Ultra High Performance Sport

Manufacturer Part #: 207-350

UTQG: 200AAA

Sidewall Color: Black Wall

Load/Speed Rating: 89/W

Not so good in rain, obviously worthless in snow.  Won=E2=80=99t last =
that long, but I doubt I will run 20k miles in 5 or 6 years.

Just a note here:  there are many who claim that you can run tires as =
long as they look ok, or if you store them inside.  That=E2=80=99s =
fiction.  7 or 8 years is the maximum tires will last.  They dry rot =
from the inside.  Don=E2=80=99t be foolish; old tires will disintegrate =
as you are driving and you will be on a sled.
