check this link out and the links in the thread. these tires are the same compond as the Azenies but more sizes.

doh...could have gone 255/40/17

looks like they would suck less in the rain too.

What the dilemma? Dot-r tires(RA-1) and standard tires are two different animals all together.

Actually the real reason is I'm scared of pushing you off the track...

:lol:

The 451's use the same base compound as the Azenis Sports, so shaved they are practically a R compound tire... shaved is the key...

Can i shave my beat up azenis sports to make them a near R compound track tire???
They have some decent tread but im about to get new tires so would these be useful for the track if they were shaved????
I ran them at the track once already but I was wondering about this option....
Thanks....

Those are best unshaved, those are close to R's as you can get... the thread pattern is so flat already I wouldn't shave em... but if they're going to be track only tires... sure, why not?

Well, they were pretty good at the first EOC event(my first time on the track with a best lap of 1:19 ccw without the bowl turn) but i was wondering if I could improve them by shaving them..... im just gonna rock um how they are.....makes it easier for me to get out there.....
BTW,what pressures do you think are good....
Thanks....

You can also get the Dunlop SP Super Sport R-compound for about $130 a tire. They do offer 245/40 -17.
