Best RR tires for Wagon Wheels?
I want to get a set of tires for my wagon wheels, to do DE and track events. I previously used Toyo R1's on my Trans Am. Any suggestions? I have an 03 C5 coupe.

I put F1 Supercars on my wagons and love them. I think they are a great tire. A lot of people here don't like them, not sure why though, I have never really gotten a good reason why.
They are great in rain also.

I ran used Hoosier and Dunlop slicks on a full set of 18's for years. I loved them. I used 305/30/18s all around. I still have them as back up. You can get wagon wheels so cheap and they are light.

go to hoosier site or tirerack.com and see what Hoosier slicks fits the rims. Better not to oversize much if any as it will distort the contact patch.

I think Hoosier makes RS05's in the right 17/18 sizes...like a 245 front and a 285 rear or something similar?

Melting Slicks
Hay Bob;
If your looking for slicks, I have a rears (scrubs) that I bought and never ran. They are equal to a 295X35, so they will work just fiine on wagons.
