this is the first official announcement directly from Hoosier according to Jeff Spear their AutoX / Road Race Product Manager
the new tire is designed and tested and is coming out very soon new 19" sizes are: 315/40-19 (Ford GT) 325/30-19 ( C6 Z06) 345/30-19 (Viper SRT10) the first two will be available in late March and the Viper size in mid-April these are also new compound/technological version from the previous R3S05 and A3S05 ... They will be known as simply, R6 for road race and A6 for AutoX. All of the existing Hoosier race tires will be converting to the new designs (so, look for a sale on R3S05's and A3S05's in the future) no additional info is available at this time this message has been posted with the permission of Jeff Spear / Hoosier Tire |

Wow - prepare for the autocross onslaught - that ought to make the SRT VERY competitive in AX - I'd love to toss one around with the new R compounds.

fronts are no problem ..... and while they are street legal it's not a tire you would want to run on the street ... they are slicks and wear really fast
