Those are some pretty tires you got there. Let me know how you like them on the street, that sidewall is probably stiff as Fock.

Well you didn't ask my opinion! I would have told you to leave the fenders alone and gone with at least an 8.5" wheel.

I am trying to get a bunch of Evo's to Putnam on October 7-8. Put in on your calendar.

I thought the A032r is on closeout and is being replaced by the A048r?

Is that why they were so cheap?

Lotus guys were telling me these don't like to be heat cycled too much before they lose overall grip. After that they grip similar to a max performance summer tire.

I would concur with the heat cycle notion, I took off 4 a032r's this past weekend at Mid Ohio that still had plenty of tread on them, but not much grip left.
