that's a pretty good special

where can we look up the reference prices?
how much would be for say x4 245/45/16 RA1s ?
also, how stiff is the sidewall on those? i saw they recommend a 8.0" rim for it, but the range includes 7.5" and 9.0" aswell. Would those dimentions be ok on my ET25 16x7.5 rims? (on a late E30)

i wish they would have 225 or 235 widths in similar dimentions, 205 would be too skinny for me.

Striker: are you taking advantage of the deal? which dimentions are you going for?

Thanks
Alex

Not bad, it might be time to get some R rated rubber then. Do you a list of prices??? So we can see how much they are list and then see how much we are actually paying? Where are the tires coming from?

Alex, it's easier to call your loca retailer for Toyo,s list price on specific prices. He will not give you the 35% off of his list, but of that on Toyo's list.

Talon Tires for example has the Toyo RA-1 listed for $262.00 but Toyo Canada has listed a bit higher, with the 35% off it will be cheaper than $ 262

I may take up the promo offer on these. They are strictly race tires though, they will only last ab out 3,000 Km on the street.

Side walls are really strong and there is great feed back about them. They are great in the wet with good threads and better when worn a bit running on dry track. On dry track the more they wear the better they grip so shaving them is suggested for competitors wanting early grip

225-50-16 is recommended for the ET25 16X7.5 rims, mine have the same specs and that's what I will be going with.

Any local retailer can sell you these, again, at 35% off of TOYOS list price. Please not this offer is for the RA-1 ONLY

[thinair]

So what is the list price on 235/40/17?

Might be easier to email them them directly for pricing or calling up a local Toyo retailer

I'll check at work to see if we have a toyo book with list prices.

Static: You guys are getting speed rating and the tire compound mixed up.
These tires are R compound tires, meaning strickly for race/track. And as Striker said the speed rating is V and Z depending on the size i believe. But V and Z are pretty much the same anyways.

V = 240 km/h
W = 270 km/h
Y = 300 km/h
ZR = 240+ km/h

Correct, thanks for the clarification and yes I meant speed rating. I thought you guys read my posts and understood they were race tires. T.Dot you guys carry Toyo tires?

I think static just got mixed up with stalker called them R rated, when i think he meant R compound.

Nope we dont stock Toyo's, I believe we can order them, but I dont think we get that great prices on them, hence the reason we dont stock them.
