I have 15" rims on the 1200 and 195-50s on it in a street tyre, I want to put something that I can hill climb with on there, is there tyres that size available for racing? what have you used?
Cheers. Adam.

Falken, Dunlop, Toyo and Yokohama [and probably others] all make semi slicks in 195 /55 /15.
Dunlop do a full slick "Bias Ply" Formula-R in 185 /580 /15. This one is very close to 195 /50 /15 cheers Benny

Do you plan on swapping the racing tires onto your 15's or are you planning on getting another set of rims?
Just for a budget option, you can get the used formula ford tyres (avons) for about $30 a tyre with reasonable tread left on them. They are 13inch though.

Yoko 048's are a great choice..cause you can use them for the street too. They are excellent race tyres. Trouble is there is only one dealer in each state that sells them and whatever price they give you you wont find better or worse. If you say you are in the IPRA club you may get a discount.
