Scotty, you need to read your North American Pylon! The January 1999 issue
(page 19) has an article on Hoosier's new 18" autocross tire. It comes in
three 18" sizes, 245/35ZR-18, 275/35ZR-18 and 335/30ZR-18. All three tires
are available in the R3S03 (road race) and A3S03 (autocross) compounds.

Come on, join the fun! :-)
