Thread-topic: [Fot] Tires for a Spitfire
I've got Toyo R888 on both my Spitfire & GT6 now. Both are race cars, but I
think it would be an excellent street tire. The Spitfire has 185's on it, and
the GT6 has 205's.

I had good success with Toyo RE1's, but they are no longer made in 13".

There are a few new sets floating around, but check MFG date.  I now run Toyo
R888, 1st test in a couple of weeks.



Another FoT is running Hoosier Street TD's on his Spit.



If you buy Toyos, do not pay extra for heat cycling, as Toyo already does this
at the factory.



Good luck!

I am looking for a set of tires for my Spitfire. I use it mostly as a daily
driver, but auto cross with it as well. The tires that are on it now measure

155/80R/13 and were only supposed to be shop rollers. 2 years later, I am
looking again. The shops around here have junk, so what kind do you all
recommend?



Thanks in advance!
