Tires

[panozracing]

we run 305 fronts on 11 in rims - it does limit steering but we did NOT have to do any mods except steering stops and there is no effect on the track at speed.

we run 325 rears on 12 in. rims - only mod was trimming the plastic and altering the metal bracket in front of the wheel holding the bodywork by the doors.

We did not need any major setup changes. We have found after 2+ years W2W racing with both michelins and pirellis with these size tires (lots more W2W but on diff. size tires and specs) that the P-zero's are a little better but right now after a recent significant P-zero price increase they cost MUCH more than the michelins and the cost does NOT justify the minor if any perf. gain!

Racer9007 - why do you say the 325 neeeded major setup changes (diff. construction)? Also, where/what is your pricing on tires? I recently bought tires and the P-zero's where so much more we jkust switched back to michelins. We used to run Michelins but they were about the same price as P-zero so we switched to P-zero but now they are much more so back we went to Michelins.

I am not sure how long ago you ran the 325 set up, but the most recient batch out of the new Pirelli factory is very different than the old ones, they are almost 1.5 wider and are a different construction. They new ones are the tires that the Daytona Prototypes runs and are built for that application. If you want to PM I will get you pricing, and I can drop ship to you if you like.
