who and what model is good for track rain tires?

 

You looking for all out race tire?
As in dedicated Race tire only, never gets used for anything else but racing?

or just a tire to mess around with in the rain at HPDEs, SCCA solos and prolly drive to an fro the good times?

I have had pretty good luck with Hankook Ventus RS2 street tires 200 treadwear. 205/45/16 on a K20 EG civic cpe. I need more traction so am stepping up to a 225 but I seem to do pretty darn well at HPDEs on this tires in the wet. I am going to Nitto Nt01s this year for dry traction.

For an all out race tire many go with an overpriced hoosier but I "think" most of the Honda Guys go with a full tread Toyo RA1

Hoosier dirt stockers, hands down. Don't expect to get too much use out of them though.

 

If I had the money I would be all over a set of Rain Hoosiers. 225/45/17 if I was a baller.. .

Others

Toyo RA1s at full tread are always a good option
Kumho Victoracers at full tread http://www.tirerack.com/tires/...+V700

All the above are all out race tires although the RA1s could be a street tire as well. I know the Victoracers and RA1s double as a Dry tire once they loose their treadblocks. I have no idea about the Hoosiers for Dry.. .

Bridgestone Potenza+RE-01R < Not an ALL out race tire but real close

I'm going to throw this tire out there although they have no 15" sizes yet, I know a guy that works for Bridgestone Firestone and actually tested these tires and he says they are a phenominal tire. Other than the Nitto Nt01, these are going to be a hot ticket this year.. . These are better than the Advan Neovas I think.. .
