Default What kind of wheel/tire combos are you WINNERS running in HC?

I currently run RA1's and have had some thoughts of either Kumho 710's or Hoosier RR tires.....Currently I run 225/50/15 on Rota 15x6.5" wheels. Its such a pain trying to find a 15x7 or 15x7.5" wheel that will fit my 114.3x4 pattern. Rota is nice enough to offer several uni-4lug wheels.....
Thanks for any help!

on the west cost any one who wins is on RA1.

in the MW EC and SE you can use any tire and its pretty much undisputed that hoosiers are the fastest tires around.

how well does your tire fit on those 6.5" rims
it is true that its hard to find a 15x7 in 4x114.3 bolt pattern
would a 205.50.15 be best ont htat width rim?

They fit fine. I don't think it'll work on my hatch though. I have been running them on my Prelude with no rubbing.
I don't know if 205 would be ideal, I always run 225's. I may have to look into 205's for the Hatch though.

I know for awhile Rota was offering at least the Slipstreams semi-custom in 15x7, you could try contacting them about it. They were available only by "special order" or something, so you won't find it on their website.

slipstream is not dual lug pattern. When I sold them, they were 4x100 or 5x114.3 only. Don't know if they've changed that or not but I doubt it since there's not a ton of cars with the 4x114.3 pattern.
