Probably the wrong season to post, but I found a source for some track tires for cheap. (Still doesn\'t beat that US$35/tire Hoosier deal I found though! Too bad they were sold out.)

Hankook Ventus R-S2 for ~$330.
Falken RT-615 for ~$420.

Prices are in CAD, and don\'t include shipping. Tires are brand new, shaved to 4/32\" and their sizes are both 225/45/17.

They\'ll be used exclusively for track duty. Is it worth the extra $100 or so for the Falkens?

If anyone else is interested, let me know and I\'ll send you the contact of the seller. He only has one set of each.

DAAAMMMNNN those are cheap...Don\'t think I could run 225/45

You need to drop me a line man, looking at my options for tires for next year too.

I\'d go for the falkens myself.
