What sort of rubber are your competitors using Tom?

Not sure they are available for you but I'm using Hoosier Street TDs 185/60-13. They are a very short tire 20.6 diameter with a 7" section width. Note they are bias ply, pretty much slicks with grooves in them. I started using them because they fit under the rear fenders without clearance issues. I've stuck with them because they've made me very competitive.

Not sure of your rules their.
I have used Kumho Ecsta V70A but am now using Hankook Z214,225/45R13 C5 compound they fit on 7" rims and fit under the guards(slight massage of outer lip) Try Federal 595 I have ordered a set of Hankook Z209, 210/530R13 & compound tarmac race/rally tyres for longer races.about $260 each Hope this helps or confuses you even more.GREG.

I'm rapidly reaching the conclusion that the 175x60x13 Kuhmo V70A's that I have been using are just a tad to small and to be honest while they are okay, are not as good as the old Bridgestone RE520S's that I used previously ( and they were the thick end of 10years old before they ever hit the track.
Unfortunately the 4 door does not enjoy the rear guard clearance that the coupe does so I am very limited in my sizing. 185x60x13 will be the biggest that I can go and that will involve some inner guard massaging! Options here in New Zealand are limited but what is on offer is Yokahama A048's at $239 each or Toyo R888R's at $405 each!!There is also the R888 at $300. Has anybody had any experience with any of these tyres? Also can anybody tell me what is the tyre of choice in improved production in Australia? Any other recommendations?
